Anagram of O'Neill claims plus ch for chief
1) Anagram of "O'Neill" and "claims" with "ch" for chief.
2. chorea , a nervous condition (sounds like Korea) if the clue reads "...nation SAID to be...
chorea ( pronounced Korea ). I assume you meant to type said not set.
2) Looks like Patria... wish I could work out why.
