Next Krishna describes how the inhabitants of world comes from Him
maharṣayaḥ sapta pūrve
catvāro manavas tathā
mad-bhāvā mānasā jātā
yeṣāṁ loka imāḥ prajāḥ
Word for word:
mahā–ṛṣayaḥ — the great sages; sapta — seven; pūrve — before; catvāraḥ — four; manavaḥ — Manus; tathā — also; mat–bhāvāḥ — born of Me; mānasāḥ — from the mind; jātāḥ — born; yeṣām — of them; loke — in the world; imāḥ — all this; prajāḥ — population.
Translation:
The seven great sages and before them the four other great sages and the Manus [progenitors of mankind] come from Me, born from My mind, and all the living beings populating the various planets descend from them.
The important principle is everyone comes from Krishna. It is elaborately described in SB.
So sometimes people are proud of their ancestor that 7 generation before my ancestor was king but we all will go back to the root we will be proud as we all come from Krishna.
