Filter pbix file data

I have two .pbix files, one that hosts the model and the other that holds the report. Is there a way to create more reports against the same model with filtered data? My use case is that the model holds data for all countries, but I want to create country-specific reports. Do I need to create models per country as well? Or can I use the same underlying model to create multiple reports against it? If yes would that play a role in performance if multiple reports are viewed at the same time?

@Anonymous it is advisable to work with one model, if you want country-specific reports from the same model, you can have a report level filter to filter the country, hide/lock this so that user cannot change it, and you are good to go.
