aliens seem to act like GLA, and those portals are like Tunnels
then GDI is USA and NOD is China
WRONG. GDI is the equivalent of China (massing strong tanks with lots of weapon upgrades) + USA (turtling, Ion cannon), Nod is the equivalent of the GLA (sneaky tactics, weakness exploit) and the Aliens are completely different, or maybe a bit like the US army in Generals...I dunno...Maybe they'll have precision and no need for large forces or sneak attacks. A small force will do the job of a larger GDI one. However, their costs are high. Nod has probably the cheapest costing stuff. (Except for Stealth Generators)

IMO,
Nod is like China in the sense that they rely on cheap hoards of units like their militia, and scorp tanks (BM, TH, RG, Gatt tanks.) to keep the enemy off balance until their high tech super units can arrive, like the Avatar warmech (Overlord tank.) However, like the GLA, they are capable of extremely potent hit and run attacks focusing on the weaknesses of their opponent.
GDI is like what would happen if USA and China mixed and hopped up on steroids. Hoards of massively powerful armor, and extremely powerful infantry, combined with crushing artillery support and devastating airpower, all with very rapid deployment capabilities.
