Santa was born on December 3, 1950 in Kazan, [[USSR]] to a [[Finnish]] father and a [[Tatar]] mother. He was born Andrei Limponen, but later changed his name to Santa. It has often been suggested that he was involved in the death of [[Joseph Stalin]], although this is unlikely since he was only three years old at the time. When he was ten, his family was exiled to Irkutsk in [[Siberia]]. When they found out that the townspeople planned to assassinate Santa's father, they fled to the North Pole where Santa and his children still live today.
