Subcontinental region featured in Dublin Diaries (5)
I believe the answer is:
india
'subcontinental region' is the definition.
'India' can be an answer for 'region' (India is an example). I'm unsure of the 'subcontinental' bit.
'featured in dublin diaries' is the wordplay.
'featured in' indicates a hidden word.
'INDIA' can be found hidden inside 'dublin diaries'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for india that I've seen before include ""Bharat", locally" , "Nation, I (radio comms.)" , "Second-most populous country" , "Queen Victoria considered it the Jewel in the Crown" , "Cricket team" .)
