Answer: A. warrior, but he later embraced peace.

Ashoka was an Indian emperor of the Maurya Dynasty, who ruled almost the whole Indian subcontinent from c. 268 to 232 BCE.

Ashoka was a conqueror, and he waged an enormous war against the state of Kalinga, which he conquered in 260 BCE. However, the extent of destruction, deaths and suffering he witnessed during this war (about 100,000 people were killed and 150,000 were displaced) impacted him greatly. Shortly afterwards, Ashoka converted to Buddhism, and he was pivotal to the spread of Buddhism in the subcontinent.

Which action was not a precedent set by President George Washington? He served only two terms. He lived in the White House. He e
Georgia [21]

George Washington was elected unanimously twice as the first president of America. He helped define the future role and authority of the office. He understood well that it is necessary to revive executive power in the country. He believed that the precedents he had to make was necessary for the republic to function, but did not intend to implement a dictatorship or a monarchy. He appointed the Cabinet, and proposed the main laws to the Congress, with the intention of the Presidency to be powerful. He spent a lot of time doing government jobs, organizing meetings with the public in the afternoon, as well as dinner with invited guests.

He wanted to spend time on his property, especially under the pressure of obligations and merciless journalists, and thus made the president's withdrawal into his homes, under pressure from the public, acceptable. He retired after eight years and thus set the precedent that the president could only serve two mandates. It was later broken by Roosevelt.

The right answer is He lived in the White House.
