List of longest-living state leaders

This article lists the 100 oldest heads of state or heads of government of sovereign states (often a President or a Prime minister)[1], since 1800. This list includes those who are leaders over a sovereign and internationally recognized state. States with limited recognition are not included (exceptions being for states considered independent in their own right, including members of the Warsaw Pact). A leader who doesn't have any reliable source about their death currently or has been alive with a source for more than 10 years old are not included in the list. The longest-lived verifiable state leader is Chau Sen Cocsal Chhum of Cambodia at the age of 103 years, 143 days.[2] Muhammad al-Muqri of Morocco is the only state leader who possibly could've lived longer, at the age of either 103 years, 219 days or 97 years, 219 days.[3] Leaders who are currently living are in bold in green, with Guillermo Rodríguez of Ecuador being the longest-living at the age of 102 years, 140 days.[4]
