Stalin was born as Ioseb Jughashvili to a Georgian family in Gori, Tiflis Governorate, Caucasus Viceroyalty, Russian Empire (now in modern Georgia) on December 18th, 1878. He was born into a poor family, two of his siblings died in infancy prior to his birth. His father Besarion was an alcoholic and beat his wife named Keke and Joseph. He later changed his surname to "Stalin", meaning "Man of Steel" in Russian. He became interested in Marxism at a young age after reading some of [[Vladimir Lenin]]'s works. It was that this time that he joined the Bolshevik party. The party needed money and the young Stalin started doing bank heists to earn money for the party. Between 1902 and 1913, he got arrested eight times. In June 1907, Stalin along with other Bolsheviks were involved in a major bank robbery in Tiflis (now Tbilisi, Georgia) in which they hijacked a stagecoach along with the police and guards. They got away with 241,000 rubles. | Stalin was born as Ioseb Jughashvili to a Georgian family in Gori, Tiflis Governorate, Caucasus Viceroyalty, Russian Empire (now in modern Georgia) on December 18th, 1878.
