The first ruler of the Mauryan Empire, who unified all the smaller Aryan kingdoms into one civilization. He began by seizing control of small remote regions of Magadha and then worked his way gradually to the center. By 321 BC he had overthrown the ruling dynasty and consolidated his hold on the kingdom. He then moved into the Punjab and brought northwestern India under his control. Next he ventured beyond the Indus River and conquered the Greek state of Bactria.
