Crossword Genius

Nation where a note is rewritten (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

estonia

'nation' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a note is rewritten' is the wordplay.
'rewritten' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'note'+'is'='anoteis'
'anoteis' anagrammed gives 'ESTONIA'.

'where' is the link.

(Other definitions for estonia that I've seen before include "One of the Baltic States" , "Baltic state" , "East European country" , "Baltic republic, capital Tallinn" , "Republic in northeastern Europe" .)

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