Country in Vanuatu reported back (4)
I believe the answer is:
peru
'country' is the definition.
(Peru is an example)
'in vanuatu reported back' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'back' is a reversal indicator.
'urep' is hidden in the letters of 'vanuatu reported'.
'urep' in reverse letter order is 'PERU'.
(Other definitions for peru that I've seen before include "Lima's country" , "South American state" , "Machu Picchu country" , "Andes republic" , "Paddington Bear's country of birth" .)
