Zulu and Bambi broadcast by western European country (8)

I believe the answer is:

zimbabwe

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

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

'zulu and bambi broadcast by western european' is the wordplay.
'zulu' becomes 'Z' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'broadcast' is an anagram indicator (letters scattered or cast around).
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'western european' becomes 'we' (this could be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'bambi' anagrammed gives 'imbab'.
'z'+'imbab'+'we'='ZIMBABWE'

Can you help me to learn more?
