The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Emperor Asoka's achievements reflected the ideals of Buddhism in the following ways.

As the third ruler of the Mauryan Empire, Ashoka the Great (304-232 BCE) ruled India under the principles of Buddhism with much success. In the beginning, he was a cruel ruler and his army killed many people. But after so much blood and a time of introspection, Ashoka changed and followed the principles taught by Buddha. History says that he wrote an edict in which he expressed his regret for what he had done in the past. So Ashoka made a reformation to instill peace in his reign and his officials carved rock with his edict for the people to contemplate it. He promoted freedom of religion and tolerance of different beliefs. He constructed hospitals and helped the poor. He ordered to plant fruit trees, and promote the respect for the elderly.

What are the pros and cons of circle sentencing in serious cases of domestic violence?

Gnoma [55]

Circle sentencing refers to the sentence/punishment that require the offender to follow a certain type of rehabilitation program so they can be educated and not repeat the same type behavior again.

Pros of circle sentencing

- the rate of re-occurrence for the same crime would be dramatically reduced.

- Since the rehabilitation program would include the combination of soft-skill and hard- skill, the offender might come out becoming a more functional member of society.

Cons of circle sentencing

- This type of programs usually cost a lot of money for the federal government. So they would most likely increase the tax rate in order to achieve this.

For a satellite orbiting a planet, one focus is at the center of planet; the other focus could be internal or external to the planet. It is called an ellipse.
