Country with value on continent (not France) (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
costa rica
'country' is the definition.
(Costa Rica is an example)
'value on continent not france' is the wordplay.
'value' becomes 'cost' (cost is a kind of value).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'continent' becomes 'africa' (Africa is an example).
'not' suggests deleting specific letters.
'france' becomes 'f'.
'africa' with 'f' taken away is 'arica'.
'cost'+'arica'='COSTA RICA'
'with' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for costa rica that I've seen before include "Central American country, capital San Jose" , "A Socratic kind of country in S America" , "Central American republic" , "A Socratic country in Central America, oddly" , "source of coffee" .)
