Stole round numbers of Romans in the country (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

bohemia

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

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

'stole round numbers of romans' is the wordplay.
'stole' becomes 'boa' (both can mean a type of scarf).
'round' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'numbers of romans' becomes 'hemi' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'boa' going around 'hemi' is 'BOHEMIA'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bohemia that I've seen before include "District for unconventional people - former European kingdom" , "territory" , "Part of the Czech Republic" , "Czech region" , "old kingdom" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
