America endlessly embroiled in area of conflict (6)
I believe the answer is:
crimea
'area of conflict' is the definition.
(Crimean War)
'america endlessly embroiled' is the wordplay.
'endlessly' means to remove the last letter.
'embroiled' indicates anagramming the letters.
'america' with its last letter taken away is 'americ'.
'americ' with letters rearranged gives 'CRIMEA'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for crimea that I've seen before include "Ukrainian peninsula, site of a 19th century war" , "Ukraine peninsula, scene of war (1853-6)" , "Ukrainian peninsula, theatre of 1853-6 war" , "Where there was a battle" , "former battleground" .)
