To clear every thing up he died at the age of 78. he was born in 1869 and died in 1948. these yrs would indicate 79 but his birthday had not passed yet so he was only 78 when he died.
just as an extra after he was assassinated both his wife and his brother were also killed. his wife was even killed by her own bodyguards. kinda weird huh
