mocomi.com presents : Ashoka The Great History in Hindi
Ashoka the great was emperor of the Maurya Dynasty who ruled the Indian subcontinent from 269 BC to 232 BC. His kingdom stretched from Pakistan and Afghanistan in the west to Bangladesh and Assam in the east, and as far as Kerala and Andhra Pradesh in the East. Ashoka was headquartered in Magadha (Bihar).
Ashoka in his younger days is said to have had a massive temper and was also very wicked and cruel. He once put his ministers through a loyalty test in which he killed 500 of them. He was also nicknamed Chand Ashoka which means ‘Ashoka the Fierce’ for having built a horrific torture chamber.
On ascending the throne, Ashoka expanded his empire to regions in Iran, Persia and Afghanistan over the next eight years. The battle of Kalinga would be the one that would change his life forever.
Kalinga was a rich and fertile land situated between the Godavari and Mahanadi rivers. This was the only land left to conquer. The people of Kalinga refused to bow down to Ashoka’s rule, however, they were also no match for Ashoka’s army. It is said that in this battle alone more than 100,000 soldiers lost their lives and many civilians who rose up in defense were deported.
