Summit where clubs vote to accept overseas capital (6)
I believe the answer is:
climax
'summit' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'clubs vote to accept overseas capital' is the wordplay.
'clubs' becomes 'c' (abbreviation used in card games such as bridge).
'vote' becomes 'x' (how votes are marked).
'to accept' indicates putting letters inside.
'overseas capital' becomes 'lima' (capital of Peru. I am not sure about the 'overseas' bit.).
'c'+'x'='cx'
'cx' placed around 'lima' is 'CLIMAX'.
'where' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for climax that I've seen before include "Exciting conclusion" , "Culminating moment" , "(Reach the) highest level" , "Peak of a performance" , "Turning point or culmination" .)
