Making enemies in a porky country (10)

I believe the answer is:

alienation

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

'making enemies in' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'a porky country' is the wordplay.
'porky' becomes 'lie' (I've seen this in other clues).
'country' becomes 'nation' (synonyms).
'a'+'lie'+'nation'='ALIENATION'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for alienation that I've seen before include "the effect of Brecht" , "Brecht's effect" , "Estrangement" , "Disunity" , "divorce" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
