What is the difference between Ashoka's administration and Chandragupta Maurya's administration?

Ashoka's administration was marked by a focus on moral governance and the promotion of Buddhism, emphasizing principles like non-violence and welfare for all citizens. In contrast, Chandragupta Maurya's administration was characterized by a more centralized and militaristic approach, with a strong emphasis on state power and territorial expansion. While Chandragupta established a vast empire through conquest and strategic alliances, Ashoka aimed to consolidate that empire through ethical leadership and the spread of Dharma. Thus, the key difference lies in Ashoka's humanitarian focus compared to Chandragupta's pragmatic and militaristic governance.
