Joseph Stalin
Joseph Stalin is a man who turned the Soviet Union from a backward country into a world superpower at unimaginable human cost. Stalin was born with a dysfunctional family in a poor village in Gori. Joseph always felt a sense of inferiority before educated intellectuals and particularly distrusted them. In 1922, Stalin was appointed to another post as General Secretary of the Communist Party's Central Committee. He shrewdly used his new position to consolidate power in exactly this way by controlling all appointments, setting agendas, and moving around party staff in such a way that eventually everyone who counted for anything owed their position to Stalin.
