Question

How did asoka unify the maurya empire

Answer 1

Asoka unified the empire by conquering unexplored tribal and forested regions. Asoka also converted from Hinduism to Buddhism and helped make Buddhist temples all over the region. He had a violent conquest over Kalinga (which was a state separate from his empire) and reunited all of these separate states until he was ruling a vast majority of what is now the Indian Subcontinent (India, Pakistan and Bangladesh). He accomplished more than his ancestors had ever accomplished.

Answer 2

Asoka unified the maurya empire through faith in Buddhism, he supported Buddhism when he saw all his men died. King Ashoka gave up wars of conquest and instead began to spread Buddhist  values to unify India.  He helped make Buddhist temples all over the region.

Ashoka is mainly known for two things: state support of Buddhism and his Rock and Pillar Edicts.

He was a member of the Maurya family, the first  leaders to unite the various kingdoms of India. The Mauryan Empire flourished  from about 322 to 187 B.C.E.
