[ Brotherhood Of Nod ]
 The Brotherhood of Nod, a supposedly ancient and secret organisation is a terrorist group, commanded by their self appointed leader Kane. An anti GDI group they claim their objective is to bring brotherhood, unity and peace to the world. This society was thought to be small until their attacks began and it soon became apparent that in fact they were an international and powerful organisation. Known to use violent and often inhumane means to achieve their goals, (including the inhumane testing of tiberium on humans leading to the creation of the Forgotten) the Brotherhood would go down in history for their emergence, starting the first Tiberium War.
This was a high-tech and brutal war fought mainly on the continents of Asia and Africa. In the end, GDI forces prevailed against NOD in a battle at sarajevo. In this battle the command centre for Kane's operations was attacked by an ion cannon and he is thought to be dead. Following this, NOD forces began to break up and now are divided into several factions. However, recently nod attacks have increased and there have possibly been some sightings of a reunification of NOD forces, thought only to be possible by a new leader...or perhaps an old leader re-emerging from the ashes...
