But in fact, being 61 years old is not very old. Although the average lifespan in Europe is only thirty to forty years, this is ultimately statistical data for ordinary people.
High officials and nobles like Prime Minister Prim, aside from those who died young, have an average lifespan of over 60 years, with many living to their seventies or eighties before dying of various illnesses.
The most obvious examples are Garibaldi and Serrano.
Garibaldi was born in 1807 and eventually died in 1882 due to complications from his early years of traveling across countries and battlefields. He was nearly 75 years old at his death, which is considered a long life even today.
Duke Serrano was no different. Born in 1810, he peacefully passed away in 1885, also living to about 75 years, practically spanning the entire 19th century.
