Country known as Hrvatska in its own language (7)

I believe the answer is:

croatia

(Other definitions for croatia that I've seen before include "Balkan republic, capital Zagreb" , "Balkan country, capital Zagreb" , "European republic, became independent in 1991" , "European state" , "Republic in SE Europe, capital Zagreb" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
