Ross

I believe the answer is:

botswana

(Other definitions for botswana that I've seen before include "Landlocked country in Southern Africa" , "Republic in south-central Africa" , "Africa country, until 1966 called Bechuanaland" , "South African country" , "Country east of Namibia, north of South Africa" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
