Country dancing finally commandeered by criminal type (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
egypt
'country' is the definition.
(Egypt is a country)
'dancing finally commandeered by criminal type' is the wordplay.
'finally' says to take the final letters.
'commandeered by' indicates putting letters inside (commandeer can mean to take over).
'criminal' indicates an anagram.
The last letter of 'dancing' is 'g'.
'type' with letters rearranged gives 'eypt'.
'g' placed within 'eypt' is 'EGYPT'.
(Other definitions for egypt that I've seen before include "International team" , "Northeast African country" , "North African nation" , "Land of ancient civilisation" , "Home of the Sphinx" .)
