wales

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'dragon' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

'country' is the second definition.
(country of the UK)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wales that I've seen before include "Part of Great Britain" , "Part of 1" , "UK country" , "Land of Dai and Dylan" , "Principality, part of the UK" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
