The site does really well locally and is found on Google P1/P2 for the vast majority of our keywords.
We also have high quality links from large established sites.

For some reason Google shows #1 traffic from Russia and #2 from USA #4 China #5 Brazil

Obviously if people are coming from these stupid locations I will have a high bounce rate.

Should I block whole countries or what the fuck does this mean?

Since I don't do international sales, I do geographical blocking. No point in having traffic that means nothing to me.
