How did Asoka apparently feel after conquering Kalinga? Why did he feel that way?

History

Andre45 [30]4 years ago

I answered a question similar to this a little while ago.  I'll repeat some of that comment here, and refer you to that other answer as well.

Asoka was ruler from 268 to 232 BC of lands that would later become known as India.  Asoka was a great conqueror but also someone who found enlightenment through Buddhism.  After conquering the Kalinga region in eastern India, rather than feeling some great rush of pride or accomplishment because of their victory, Asoka felt guilty.  So he worked hard to improve the lives of the Kalinga people that he had conquered.  Conquest was not something to be celebrated triumphantly.  Rather, conquerors had an obligation to those whom they had conquered.

Lincoln?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

  • Habeas Corpus was suspended during his Presidency.
  • Made slavery illegal in the United States.  
  • First President to be assassinated
  • Famous "Address" was given at the dedication of a battlefield cemetery
  • "Four score and seven years ago..."  
  • Lincoln's War Powers

Explanation:

Abraham Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus during the Civil War as he claimed emergency powers for himself (Lincoln war powers) to enable him deal with the Southern cessation.

He contributed to making slavery illegal by championing the 13th Amendment which cleared Congress before his assassination but was only ratified after. His assassination went down in history as the first time a president was assassinated.

His very famous ''Gettysburg Address'' which began with the words: "Four score and seven years ago..." was given as he dedicated a battlefield cemetery for Union soldiers.
