Stalin never "joined the Soviet Union." Vladimir Lenin created it in 1922 when Stalin was one of several Commissars in Lenin's government. After Lenin died Stalin and others took over running the Soviet government. Later he had total control of it.

Why did he take control over it. Stalin was always power hungry and controlling. He saw his chance at surviving Lenin after Lenin had his disabling strokes and stepped in to take that control of and exercise power over a country.
