I guess there are also a lot of cases similar to the Australia/Japanese one of IPs wrongly attributed to one country. For example, I remember that at least a few years ago (I'm not sure now) a lot of Italian customers of Tele2 had an IP that was Swedish. Maybe this is not a big effect given that the Sweden/Swedish relationship does not differ that much from the other Scandinavian countries.
