Fresh air came to the country (7)
I believe the answer is:
america
'the country' is the definition.
(United States of America)
'fresh air came' is the wordplay.
'fresh' indicates an anagram.
'air'+'came'='aircame'
'aircame' with letters rearranged gives 'AMERICA'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for america that I've seen before include "Ira came from the continent" , "Camera I used in New World" , "Federation" , "Camera I take to the continent, oddly" , "Camera I found in the continent" .)
