Reminds me of The Mirage by Matt Ruff.
" The Mirage is set in an alternate history version of the year 2009. Much of the back-story is revealed in excerpts from the Library of Alexandria, this world’s version of Wikipedia funded by Muammar Gaddafi. A politically united Arabia (analogous to the real Arab League), declared independence from the Ottoman Empire at the end of the 19th century and established itself as the United Arab States.
…North America, meanwhile, is divided among several feuding third-world nations. The largest, the Christian States of America (CSA),
… The Evangelical Republic of Texas includes Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico "
