Ashoka, the third Mauryan emperor of India, initially expanded his empire through military conquests, notably including the regions of present-day northern and central India, as well as parts of modern-day Pakistan and Afghanistan. His most famous conquest was the Kalinga War, which resulted in significant territorial gains but led to profound remorse over the loss of life. Following this, Ashoka embraced Buddhism and focused on spreading its teachings rather than further territorial expansion.
