The fall of the Mauryan Empire is closely related to the death of Emperor a. Ashoka. b. Babur. c. Bindusara. d. Chandragupta

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashoka was the grandson of Chandragupta, the founder of the Mauryan Empire. Ashoka was famous for, among other things, his conversion to Buddhism and non-violence following the bloody Battle of Kalinga in 265 BCE therefore it is A.

Answer 2

The fall of the Mauryan Empire is closely related to the death of Emperor a) Ashoka. He was not the last emperor of the Empire, but the Empire shrunk considerably after his death and he was regarded as a great warrior emperor, who conquered large parts of what would now be the modern-day Indian subcontinent.
