Name of eminence in Russia (5)
I believe the answer is:
urals
'russia' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'name of eminence in' is the wordplay.
'name' becomes 'al'.
'of eminence' becomes 'urs' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'al' put within 'urs' is 'URALS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for urals that I've seen before include "Mountain range in Russia and Kazakhstan" , "Mountains of Western Russia" , "Russian mountain range" , "Mountains of west-central Russia" , "mountain area" .)
