The simplest answer is no, there's no such thing as an IP address allocation to a country.

However, 90.0.0.0, 94.0.0.0, 2.0.0.0 and 5.0.0.0 are all part of the IPv4 address space administered by RIPE NCC, the agency responsible for assigning IPv4 addresses throughout Europe, Middle East and (parts of) Central Asia.

Where possible, contiguous blocks of addresses are allocated to the same region to allow for route summarising in the core internet routers, so this can act to some extent as a "country allocation", but it is not intended as such.
