If you zoom in on the actual municipalities in Southern Europe where people “lived the longest”, it was inevitably poor townships that were still using paper accounting systems. Also a strong correlation between “living long” and “being in a neighborhood that’s unusually mobbed up”. Sicily’s a classic example.
That’s not even to comment on health care. Italy, Spain, and France all have excellent public health care systems. And there’s plenty of evidence to suggest people with access to public care do benefit enormously relative to their peers overseas and south of the Mediterranean.
But if you want to know why certain neighborhoods had a surplus of centenarians, when the average lifespan in even the most developed countries caps out at around 80? That’s just fraud.

In Italy the health care system is good until you go further south of rome
Not just the health care system. South Italy might as well be a different country.
Well yeah, all the governments since the country union neglected south Italy that it’s basically it’s own thing aside from law
