Valparaíso's country (5)

I believe the answer is:

chile

(Other definitions for chile that I've seen before include "Long narrow country" , "Country liberated by Bernardo O'Higgins" , "South American country" , "Country of S. America" , "Most southerly American country" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
