Type of state (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

republic

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">type of state</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for republic that I've seen before include "Plato's ideal state" , "Cuba, say" , "The political system is an epic blur" , "Nation in which the head of state is elected" , "State in which the people hold the power" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
