How does your "investigation" contribute to anything? You have only contributed to this thread, which shows you’ve joined the site purely to have an argument about Jeanne Calment (presumably because you’re a riot at parties). My analysis (which consisted of a skim read and 30s of thought because it doesn’t fucking matter) is concise and, as Lafaucheuse requested, completely impartial. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, because I have studied this subject for many years and know the truth. I prefer to contribute where I know the answer. And it is not true that the truth can't be proved. There is more than enough information available for those who would like to look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting birthday as she's the first supercentenarian from Cyprus. Malta's first supercentenarian Maria Farrugia is also currently living, reached 110 in March this year Not dead, but I started wondering how many European countries have had someone reach 110 as both Malta and Cyprus "got their first supercentenarians" this year. Excluding Kazakhstan, Armenia etc, "European" countries but including the Mediterranean islands. Belarus' likely first non-emigrant supercentenarian, Polish-born Felicia Zaiko reached 110 last month. From the smaller countries Bosnia and Herzegovina has had one supercentenarian, a man who made it 15 days past 110 in 2016. Lithuania, Albania, Moldova, Slovenia, Latvia have all had atleast one person make it to 110. Excluding one emigrant North Macedonia (Macedonia) has never had a supercentenarian - however both the oldest living woman (Fikrije Loki 1914-2014) and the oldest living man (Ramiz Selmani 1914-2023) are 108. Kosovo has never had a supercentenarian either but the two oldest people in the country, Xhezide Aliu and Xhevahire Mustafa 1913-2023, are both 109, born August 1913. Estonia has never had a supercentenarian but Ottilie-Armilde Tinnuri 1914-2024 will be 109 in February if still alive. Excluding emigrants who've made it to 109 she'd be the first Estonian to make it to 109. Luxembourg has had two supercentenarians, the other an emigrant. Montenegro has had two emigrant supercentenarians. Five people in Iceland have made it to 109, unfortunately none to 110. From the microstates, Andorra's oldest person ever was 107, Liechtenstein's was 106, Monaco's and San Marino's were 105. Vatican, they've got Benny XVI and a few others. From the territories Jersey, Gibraltar and Isle of Man have never had supercentenarians, Guernsey however has had and the oldest person from Guernsey currently is Felicity Crump 1913-2023 who lives in Alderney (population around 2000). She'll be 110 in a bit over a month if still alive. Åland also has had a supercentenarian. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
