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.

A.The Sahara was a savanna

Northern Africa was a place of trees, grasslands, lakes and people. Today, it is the Sahara — a desolate area larger area than Australia. Lake Yoa, in northeastern Chad, has remained a lake through the millennia and is still a lake today, surrounded by hot desert. Although little rain falls, Lake Yoa’s water is replenished from an underground aquifer. By analyzing thousands of layers sediment in a core drilled from the bottom of this lake, an international team of scientists has reconstructed the region’s climate as the savanna changed to Sahara.

Generalized other

Explanation:

The generalized other is a concept used in social sciences and it refers to the general notion that a person has about society expectations. It also refers to what one person thinks society expects from him/her. We can say it refers to the total expectations we think "people" in general has about us.

Therefore, the generalized other is an internalized sense of the total expectations of others in a variety of settings-regardless of whether we've encountered those people or places before.
