Background information
Ulanhu was also the name of a Mongolian politician.
During the Third Battle of Tiamat, Admiral Ulanhu had a banner on his ship's bridge, which had the simplified Chinese character for "horse". This combined with the historical example of his name, suggests Ulanhu was of Mongolian background.
