Continentals involved in fracas (8)
I believe the answer is:
africans
'continentals' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'involved in fracas' is the wordplay.
'involved' is an anagram indicator (involved can mean confusing or complex).
'in'+'fracas'='infracas'
'infracas' is an anagram of 'AFRICANS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for africans that I've seen is " Libyans?".)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
