____ is a peninsula between the Black Sea and Sea of Azov (6)
I believe the answer is:
crimea
'sea of azov' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crimea that I've seen before include "Ukrainian peninsula, site of a 19th century war" , "Peninsula in Ukraine where the Light Brigade charged" , "High-quality black tea" , "Disputed Black Sea peninsula" , "War site 1853-56" .)
