Death of another tyrant. (Stalin - 1953) Crazy Dictator of "red" soviet Union, known for ordering the execution of thousands and thousands, directly and indirectly, Joseph Stalin had a rough childhood. He was born in a Gori, a small town abundant with gangs and violence. His father drank heavily, was abusive, and left to work in the provincial capital when Joseph was 5. Joseph Stalin got an academic scholarship for writing at the age of 16 and was at the top of his class. He was in choir, loved the outdoors, and became physically strong, despite his small 5'4" frame, and disposition of being judged by prejudice of having one much shorter arm, and retaining scars from being infected by disease-smallpox at a young age. People described that his eyes, a bit yellowish, looked like tiger eyes.' As tyrannical dictator, he was at least partially responsible for over 5,000,000 unrighteous deaths of Russians. He caused famine by, not only exporting excessive amounts of food and crops, but by killing so many people who worked in the agriculture. At the age of about 29/30 he robbed banks to raise money for his "party," and spent years in prison. The primary reason for his decision to join the Allied powers was to get back at Hitler for breaking the 1939 pact they had made.
