Are there any countries like this?

Read up what happened in England during the Commonwealth of England era from 1649-1660, when the "godly" Puritans were in charge. They were the Taliban of their day, which the same could be said for their compatriots who founded the the colony of Massachusetts.

Most of the English ones only declared war against their king (Charles I) because they thought he was a Crypto-Catholic who was undermining their religion, if Charles I had been a Puritan like one of them. These same people would have been (mostly) quite enthusiastic supporters of an absolute monarchy.
