Top 20 European Oldest Living People (as of 20th August 2024)
(documented or partially documented)
Today's update (RIP Ms. Branyas Morera)

1. Ethel May Caterham (b. 21 August 1909), 114, 🇬🇧 United Kingdom
2. Charlotte Kretschmann (3 December 1909), 114, 🇵🇱🇩🇪 Poland/Germany
3. Marie-Rose Tessier (b. 21 May 1910), 114, 🇫🇷 France
3. Silveria Martín Diaz (b. 20 June 1910), 114, 🇪🇸 Spain
5. Claudia Baccarini (b. 13 October 1910), 113, 🇮🇹 Italy
6. Lucia Laura Sangenito (b. 22 November 1910), 113, 🇮🇹 Italy 
7. Klavdiya Gadyuchkina (b. 5 December 1910), 113, 🇷🇺 Russia
8. Andree Bertoletto (b. 1 January 1911), 113, 🇫🇷 France
9. Margarete Troestl (b. 26 February 1911), 113, 🇦🇹 Austria
10. Aline Blain (b. 10 August 1911), 113, 🇫🇷 France
11. Mary Florence Walker (b. 28 August 1911), 112, 🇬🇧 United Kingdom
12. Piedad Loriente Perez (b. 11 September 1911), 112, 🇪🇸 Spain
13. Francesca Fioriglio (b. 11 January 1912), 112, 🇮🇹 Italy
14. Mary Keir (b. 3 March 1912), 112, 🇬🇧 United Kingdom
15. Maria Farrugia (b. 7 March 1912), 112,  Malta
16. Teodora Cea Bermejo (b. 1 April 1912), 112, 🇪🇸 Spain
17. Maria Carmela Ricci (b. 16 April 1912), 112, 🇮🇹 Italy
18. Gunborg Hancock (b. 20 April 1912), 112, 🇫🇮🇸🇪 Finland/Sweden
19. Agnes Boström (b. 29 April 1912), 112, 🇸🇪 Sweden
20. Cristina Paloscia (b. 15 May 1912), 112, 🇮🇹 Italy

This is the first change in the top five in 19 months, the chance of this happening is around 1/250 (19 months for five people would be the same as one person living 95 months = about 8 years, so 2 to the power of 8, if we are going by mortality rate of 1/2). We went from 115, 113, 113, 112, 112 to 117, 114*, 114, 114, 114

With a run like this, it is only fitting that Maria herself is the one to end it
