The Brotherhood of Nod, often referred to simply as Nod or The Brotherhood, is a fiction faction which is featured prominently in the Command & Conquer franchise of real-time strategy video game by Westwood Studios and Electronic Arts Los Angeles. Revealed within the series' lore to be an ancient and secret society that allegedly predates most of civilization's recorded history, the Brotherhood of Nod began to represent a globalized as well as a highly militant Abrahamic cult during the futuristic era in which these games are set; showing the combined characteristics of a vast religious movement, a multi-national corporation and a decentralized nation-state, while being none of the three in itself. The society consistently is shown to be led by a mysterious, charismatic character who is known only as "Kane". Their emblem is a chamfer triangle enclosing a curved scorpion tail, featuring black and red as its main color elements.

Exact date unknown; the Win95 manual to the original 1995 Command & Conquer game mentions "exaggerated reports" that place the Brotherhood's founding prior to 1800 BC -- an ancient origin of Nod which the 2007 Tiberium Wars novel alludes to as well. Throughout the titles of the C&C series, various snippets of evidence are uncovered that cogently suggest this given date to be accurate, among them:

Prior to the outbreak of the first war, the Brotherhood was considered a minor terrorist faction by the G7 intelligence agencies. When a scandal broke out involving major defense contractor however, it was confirmed Nod concealed a substantial military land, air and sea capability across the globe. Before the Sarajevo headquarters was first identified, Nod was believed to have no central command base, instead operating from multiple individual locations, with posts found in Kuantan, Malaysia; the Ar-Rub' al-Khali desert, Saudi Arabia; Tokyo, Japan and Caen, France. Also before the first war, Nod backed a number of officially recognized political parties; among the ones mentioned are the Fist of Allah party in Jordan, the United We Stand America party in the United States, and the Albion First! party in the United Kingdom, among several others. Additionally, they are known to be affiliated with the Irish Republican Party, Islamic Jihad, Khmer Rouge and other groups.

According to the canonical C&C storyline, Nod was defeated at the hands of Global Defense Initiative after a three-year lasting world war. To increase support, Kane had devised a plan to blame GDI for the slaughter of the population of Białystok, Poland, with Nod broadcasting manipulated news reports claiming GDI soldiers razed the whole town on the grounds of its citizens being Tiberium smugglers. This created a scandal that forced the United Nations to cut GDI funding pending an investigation, causing the organization to apparently nearly shut down. With GDI supposedly crippled by the funding cut, Nod began an all-out assault against GDI forces in an attempt to finish them off. Kane however was unaware that this 'investigation' was in fact a deception planned by the UN. The Nod offensive against GDI caused their forces to be spread thin, and GDI took large areas of Nod territory in their counterstrikes, giving them a decisive advantange. Kane was believed to have been killed at the final stand of the Brotherhood near Sarajevo, seemingly vaporised in the light of GDI's final ion cannon discharge.
