War and corruption in country (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rwanda

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

'war and corruption' is the wordplay.
'corruption' is an anagram indicator.
'war'+'and'='warand'
'warand' with letters rearranged gives 'RWANDA'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for rwanda that I've seen before include "Scene of a genocide in 1994" , "Republic in central Africa" , "Central African country" , "Language" , "African state" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
