Description
Based on the novel After The Revolution by Robert Evans
The book takes place primarily in Texas in 2070 after a violent and prolonged Second American Civil War that began around 2040. If some of the borders don’t jive with your own ideas about a balkanization of the United States, keep in mind it's been 50 years and a lot has happened. This is the equivalent of making a map of Europe in 1900 based on a novel set post-WW2. The book is currently being released three chapters a week, so as more info becomes available, the map will be fleshed out further.

Further, since many of the entities here are only mentioned in passing, I am portraying them as possessing their current borders unless specified otherwise. If you notice something that is directly contradicted by the text, please let me know!
EXISTING NATIONS
Canada
-Canada is mentioned briefly as supplying the Secular Defense Forces.
Mexico
-Mexico hasn’t been mentioned but probably also exists more or less in its current form

-Has a border in the Blue Ridge Mountain area
Great Lakes
-Claimed by AmFed but semi-independent and under Canadian protection

-Claims Missouri, but that is contested by AmFed
-Has a border in the Blue Ridge Mountain area
Republic of Texas
-Controls east Texas from its capital in Galveston to what was formerly Dallas (Ciudad de Muerte), but not further west than Austin
-Likely claims all of the old state
Oklahoma
-governed by an Indigenous confederation dominated by the Choctaw
Kingdom of Albuquerque
-Has only been mentioned in passing
-Roland’s group is not mentioned as passing through the Kingdom on the way to Texas, so their control likely doesn’t extend as far south as the Mexican border

CITIES AND CITY-STATES
Austin Autonomous Republic
-Independent of the Republic of Texas, the city seems to control some of the area around it other towns such as Waco are under its protection
-Implied to be the main rival to the Republic of Texas, though the two seem to have at least an informal truce against the Heavenly Kingdom

CamelToe
-A city on Camelback Mountain, it was originally named by teen survivors

OTHER AREAS
The West
-a patchwork of partly independent city-states and semi-autonomous regions. A decent amount of it is no longer inhabitable in large scale.
Missouri
-contested by the UCS and either AmFed or the Blackstone Nation (I might have misinterpreted that comment)
Cascadia, soon to be ravaged by tremendous Richter 10 earthquake.
