* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Just like the Soviets from Red Alert, the Brotherhood of Nod was very popular in 1990's Russia, though for murkier reasons. Partially this can be blamed on Kane appearing in Red Alert and Nod sharing the same red team color with Soviets, making gamers assume that's one faction, and a few Russian gaming magazines erroneously stating Nod are Russian and GDI are American. Tiberian Sun also was released short after 1999's Yugoslavian conflict, and a faction with a Serbian protagonist opposing NATO-inspired GDI was sympathetic to Russian audience. Last but not the least, in Russia Kane is often (though mostly humorously) associated with Vladimir Lenin, not only for having similar bald head and goatee, or being a MagnificentBastard orchestrating the Revolution, but also for Soviet propaganda slogans claiming that Lenin "lived, lives and will live", similar to "Kane lives in death".
** In actual C&C universe Russia is a part of GDI, and Mammoth tank is apparently of Soviet design, though Nod does have at least one character of Russian origin.

** The implication of Kane being immortal, or at least LongLived looks almost true to life in [[https://youtu.be/5VAMcOJuhBA the promotional video for the remaster]], as Joseph Kucan doesn't look a whole lot older twenty five years after his first appearance in ''Tiberian Dawn''.
*** Apparently he DID die his beard for the purposes of that video.
