One of India's greatest emperors, Ashoka expanded Chandragupta's empire, and reigned over a realm that stretched from present-day Afghanistan in the west to Bangladesh in the east. It covered the entire Indian subcontinent except for parts of present-day Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala. The empire's capital was Pataliputra (in Magadha, present-day Patna), with provincial capitals at Taxila and Ujjain.

please mark me brainlist
Ashoka ranks among the greatest kings of the history. As remarked by H. G. Wells, "Amidst the tens and thousands of the names of monarchs that covered the columns of history, the name of Ashoka shines above like a star". Ashoka proved fully worthy of his heritage; he was a man of unbounded energy and gave himself without stint to the tasks of perfecting the administration of his empire and ensuring happiness of his subjects. The range of his sympathies was wide and he was by no means unwilling to adopt foreign models of administration and art of the growing needs and tastes of his country.
