Ashoka's Father is Bindusara Ashoka's Mother is Maharani Dharma or Shubhadrangi
After Chandragupta Maurya, his son, Bindusara, became the king of the Maurya Empire, which included Magadha. Bindusara ruled from around 297 to 273 BCE and continued his father's policies, expanding the empire further and consolidating its power. He is often noted for his diplomatic relations and interactions with various regions, including the Hellenistic world.
Divyavandana refers to Ashoka putting down a revolt due to activities of wicked ministers. This may have been an incident in Bindusara's times. Taranatha's account states that Chanakya, one of Bindusara's great lords, destroyed the nobles and kings of 16 towns and made himself the master of all territory between the eastern and the western seas. Some historians consider this as an indication of Bindusara's conquest of the Deccan while others consider it as suppression of a revolt. Following this Ashoka was stationed at Ujjayini as governor. Bindusara's death in 273 BC led to a war over succession. According to Divyavandana, Bindusara wanted his son Sushim to succeed him but Ashoka was supported by his father's ministers. A minister named Radhagupta seems to have played an important role. One of the Ashokavandana states that Ashoka managed to become the king by getting rid of the legitimate heir to the throne, by tricking him into entering a pit filled with live coals. The Dipavansa and Mahavansa refer to Ashoka killing 99 of his brothers, sparing only one, named Tissa. Although there is no clear proof about this incident. The coronation happened in 269 BC, four years after his succession to the throne.
The Mauryan Dynasty had several rulers, with the most notable being Chandragupta Maurya, his son Bindusara, and the famous Emperor Ashoka. In total, there are traditionally considered to be about four major rulers of the dynasty: Chandragupta, Bindusara, Ashoka, and his successor, Dasharatha Maurya. The dynasty lasted from approximately 322 BCE to 185 BCE, during which it played a crucial role in the unification and administration of ancient India.
