Trial ban I applied partially in the country (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

albania

'country' is the definition.
(Albania is an example)

'trial ban i applied partially in' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ALBANIA' can be found hidden inside 'trial ban i applied partially'.

'the' is the link.

(Other definitions for albania that I've seen before include "Country W of Macedonia" , "Mediterranean country" , "Country in the Balkans" , "Country of King Zog" , "State" .)

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