You can use the following piece of ASP code to get country details. 
goto http://pingme.info and checkout the IP whois option to get full 
details of the IP
<%
strXml="<pingme ip='"&Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")&"' />"
set XmlHttp=Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
XmlHttp.open "POST","http://pingme.info/pingme.asp",false
XmlHttp.send(strXml)
strCountryShort=XmlHttp.responsexml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName
("countryshort").Item(0).Text
strCountryLong=XmlHttp.responsexml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName
("countrylong").Item(0).Text
strCountry=XmlHttp.responsexml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName
("countryname").Item(0).Text
Response.Write("Country Short:"&strCountryShort&"<br>")
Response.Write("Country Long:"&strCountryLong&"<br>")
Response.Write("Country Name:"&strCountry&"<br>")
