Best Answer

Joseph Stalin grew up in quite a poor family. He was born in Gori, Georgia, in 1879. He was born into poverty that most peasants living in Russia were going through. He was his mother's fourth child, but the other three died and Stalin suffered from health problems as a child. This caused his mother to be seriously protective of him. Stalin was good in school and eventually won a scholarship to the Tiflis Theological Seminary. While studying here, he joined a secret organisation called Messame Dassy. Many members were socialist revolutionaries, and it was through these people that Stalin became interested in the ideas of Karl Marx. In 1899, Stalin was expelled from the Tiflis Theological Seminary. Later in life, he claimed the reason for why he was expelled was for trying to convert students at his school to Marxism. Karl Marx was Stalin's role model and inspired him.

I hope this helped.
