Best Answer

The Soviet Union backed the formation of North Korea, while the Americans backed the formation of South Korea. The People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) started under the name of Kim Il Sung on 1 May 1948. Stalin was in charge of the USSR back then, so you can say he also had some footing in the birth of the communist country.
