Pacific nation announced seventh payment? (4)
I believe the answer is:
fiji
'pacific nation' is the definition.
(country in the Pacific Ocean)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fiji that I've seen before include "Island country 1,300 miles north-east of New Zealand" , "Pacific island country" , "Commonwealth state" , "Pacific island republic" , "South Pacific republic of 844 islands" .)
