Landlocked European country (8)

I believe the answer is:

slovakia

(Other definitions for slovakia that I've seen before include "European republic, capital Bratislava" , "Ask viola about the European state" , "Country east of the Czech Republic" , "Central European country" , "in E" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
