Peace through Power! Power through Strength! Strength through Unity! Unity through Peace!

Creation:
Founded at an unknown date. Earliest alleged activies date back to the Great World War Two. The Brotherhood claims that they were formed around 1800 B.C.

Mandate:
1995: Nod's offical goal was to unite third-world nations under a pseudo-religious political platform with imperialist tendencies. In reality, the faction was an aggressive and popular anti-West movement vying for total domination of the world's people and resources.
Succeeding 2030: To destroy GDI and embrace Tiberium as the future of humanity.

Base of Operations:
Global in scope.

1995: Temple of Nod in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Before the central headquarters was identified, Nod was believed to have no central command base, instead operating from multiple individual locations, with posts previously identified in Kuantan, Malaysia; the Ar-Rub' al-Khali desert, Saudi Arabia; Tokyo, Japan and Caen, France.
2030: Temple of Nod at Cairo.
2047: Temple Prime in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Following its (second such) destruction, central command was transfered to Uluru (Ayer's Rock) in Australia and Kane's Tower in Italy.

Political Strength:
In 1995, Nod was believed to back a number of officially-recognized political parties. Among the ones recorded by UN document A42962-94 are the Fist of Allah party in Jordan, the United We Stand party in the United States, and the Albion First! party in the United Kingdom, among others. By 2047, Nod had de-facto control of formidable part of the Yellow Zones.

Economic Strength:
1995: According to CIA Docket 3231.54-776 FIA, audits of seized financial files shows that Nod had US$255.2 billion in their operation assets. Because Nod controlled a large portion of the world's Tiberium supply, they were at the forefront of Tiberium research, and possessed incredible leverage in financial operations such as on the London Gold Exchange.
2047: Multiple Tiberium mining operations provide them with needed funding.

Military Strength:
Before the outbreak of the First Tiberium War, the most accepted idea was that it was yet another minor terrorist faction but when a scandal broke out involving major American defense contractors, it was discovered that Nod had substantial military air, sea and land power. Nod forces are composed of guerrillas from affiliated organisations, mercenaries and conscripts from the territories Nod controls, as well as Nod-indoctrinated pseudo-religious fanatics. Nod has significant WMD capabilities, including nuclear-equipped ballistic missiles.

Known Affiliate Organizations:
1953: Had ties to some of the leaders of the USSR.
1995: Irish Republican Party, Islamic Jihad, Khmer Rouge, various Nod splinter groups.
2030: Brief alliance with GDI during the Firestorm Crisis. Known affiliation with some members of the Forgotten.
2047: Sub-factions include the New Black Hand and the Marked of Kane. Brief alliance with GDI during the Scrin
