Cross border DNS queries would be prohibited except for the official filtered ones that update the countries DNS server.

BGP exchanges would also be filtered to protect each country's Autonomous Systems from routing through other countries.

The internet is by definition a network of networks. Even numbering can be local, so long as you NAT everything at the border.
