"Evangelical" christianity has come to describe a certain group of mostly Protestant believers largely found in the South and Midwest US (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelicalism).

Interestingly enough, they're more of a political identity in some circles as beyond a few (relatively minor) theological differences with denominations like Baptists, Methodists, or "non-denominational" groups they mostly identify based on social/political issues (gay marriage, abortion, religion and government, etc. etc.) rather than theological ones (although they do their best to tie the two together).
