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

'country' is the definition.
(United States of America)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for america that I've seen before include "Song title shared by Sondheim-Bernstein and Paul Simon among others" , "Camera I used in New World" , "United States" , "West Side Story song" , "'Country named after Vespucci, Italian navigator (7)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
