Well in terms of no catalyst for communism, no WWII, no Holocaust, no international terrorism etc you might be right.

His passing is still sad though, last of the Victorians

His last portrait will be sold off to raise funds for the ex-forces care home where Henry spent his last days

Re: Henry Allingham the world's oldest man dies.

Henry's funeral date has been announced, thursday 30th at Brighton's biggest church, I'd imagine there will be a very large crowd to see the old boy off.
