Global Defense Initiative

The Global Defense Initiative also known as Special Operations Group Echo, Black Ops 9 before 1966. The GDI was created to fight the growing number of terrorists groups as well as to protect the United Nations and it's interests. GDI faced it's first major threat when the Brotherhood of Nod appeared out of no where and waged war on the world. The Brotherhood, lead by the charismatic Kane, was a very powerful organization but not powerful enough. What followed next would go down in history as 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 prevailed, crushing the last of the Brotherhood in a final confrontation in Sarajevo. During this final battle, the sacred Temple of Nod was destroyed and supposedly Kane was destroyed with it...
