RTS is too broad term to use it so freely for discussing about games. There were plenty of realtime strategic games before Dune 2, like Megalomania or even text-based games from 80s.

Dune 2 gave birth to specific subgenre, that resulted in C&C series and many clones (Dark Reign etc). Other subgenre born and evolved from Warcraft, where units and even squad sizes are limited and some units are "heroes" (especially from WC3, although this trend was seen in SC). RTS with unit design (Earth 2140/2150/*, Warzone) may also be separated to some different tree, although it is more Dune/C&C like than Warcraft like.
