Country occupied by settlers (6)

I believe the answer is:

colony

(Other definitions for colony that I've seen before include "Beavers' group" , "Group of animals of the same type living together" , "It is settled" , "Group of animals or plants living together" , "New settlement abroad" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
