Answer:

The Himalayas consist of three parallel ranges, the Greater Himalayas known as the Himadri, the Lesser Himalayas called the Himachal, and the Shivalik hills, which comprise the foothills. Mount Everest at a height of 8848m is the highest peak followed by the Kanchanjunga at 8598 m.

Ashoka attacked Kalinga in order to further expand the Mauryan empire. Kalinga also had valuable ports which served as a gateway to trade with the far east. Above all, his grandfather Chandragupta Maurya had tried and failed to conquer Kalinga years before, so Ashoka wanted to succeed where his grandfather had failed.
