Roman Arkadyevich Abramovich, a prominent Russian oligarch and politician, entered this world on October 24, 1966, in the city of Saratov, which was then a part of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic within the vast Soviet Union.
Despite being born into a family of Jewish heritage, Abramovich's life was marked by tragedy at a young age, as he was left orphaned after the untimely passing of both his parents.
