state

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'condition in which one will live' is the first definition.
'state' can be an answer for 'condition' (the state something is in). I am not sure about the rest of the definition.

'in america' is the second definition.
('state' is part of 'america')

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for state that I've seen before include "Declare - political unit" , "See 3" , "eg Rhode Island" , "Say; country" , "Declare; affirm" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Irish News.
