Python uses the concept of metaclasses, which are basically "classes of classes". That means, even a Class is an object in Python, which has its own class - accessible using the type in-build function.

Because ClassA and ClassB are by default instances of the same metaclass, the comparisons return True.

If you'd like to know more about metaclasses, this SO post is a good start.
