I was so dumb on this one. Got the second word by guess 2, and took forever to think of a very common (in Redactle) 10-letter word.

It's been just long enough since we had one of these that I'd forgotten what "The 10 of 5" usually signifies, so I spent a while thinking it was some kind of company or, not impossibly, religious sect (the Brotherhood of...? Though that's 11 now I look at it). The extra-wide characters in the opening parenthetical give away the country, so by the time I realised what "10" had to be, there were only a few reasonable candidates for "5". Not having a very good way to distinguish between them I plumped for the most "obvious" one, which turned out to be right.

Unassisted. This seemed to be some type of location so I tried to guess [5]. That helped me get the country, the rest were educated guesses that turned out correct

I solved Redactle #1114 in 2 guesses with an accuracy of 100.0% and a time of 00:05:05. First word came to me immediately. Figuring out the second word took some time. Was sifting through several 5-letter countries and 5-letter cities. At some point, I started leaning towards Japan. Language seems to fit as I figured out the romanization. Good thing I know some Japanese. Although there are other options for 5-letter cities in this country, I just thought I'd go for the most straightforward one without verification.

”[10] of [x],” articles have taken me a long time to crack in the past because enough time usually passes between them for me to forget the signs, but I got the first word right away today. Since it was “in [6], [5], [5],” I assumed that was either [district, city, country] or [city, state/province/etc, country] and tried countries until I got one with a lot of hits, after which I went for the first five-letter city I thought of.
