At first I thought the title was a reference to Werewolf: The Apocalypse, 'cause man that game was full of tying real-world people to its splats.

Boadicea was a werewolf. The Russian royal families were alternately Get of Fenris and Silver Fang kinfolk. The Bone Gnawers were involved in the Russian revolution, but the Bolsheviks were actually secretly controlled by clan Brujah vampires.

I mean, I know oWoD is replete with this poo poo, but the mixing of real-world history and politics with the splats seems most prominent in Werewolf.
