[31] Seagal has stated that he is of Mongol (Kalmyk) descent in a 2007 interview.^[29] It is unknown whether this is accurate. Seagal is married to Erdenetuya Batsukh, of Mongolian ethnicity, with whom he has a son.^[30]

[42] This isn't actually a depiction of Dashi but simply that of a Kara-Khitan man.

[44] Lenin never spoke of his origins, and other ethnicities have been proposed instead of Kalmyk.
