No. The game takes place in an imaginary future of 2084 (Have you read the Campaign intro?), there is no need to make it fit with the current situation.

The countries are still there, its just the territories are grouped under different names, your home country is still there waiting to be invaded by aliens! (Its not that far in the future)

72 years? Are you fucking kidding me?
Do go check how many times the world maps had to be redrawn in the equivalent period till now.
If you're too lazy to do the math, you gotta start in...1940. Hehe. Funny. Such a nice, round number.
And you don't even have to go that far. Remember the nineties?

The fluff actually says there's been some changes in that region after the third world war or whatever that was.
Taiwan reunited with China, at least and I think Korea got mentioned as well.
