- Chandragupta Maurya defeated the Nandas and established the Mauryan dynasty.
- In the text of Mahavamsa, Chandragupta is referred to as ‘the emperor of Jambudvipa i.e. emperor of Bharatvarsh’.
- The Mauryas created a huge empire by conquering the big and small states in the northwest, north, and southern regions.
- As a consequence, the boundaries of the Mauryan Empire extended to the Hindukush in the northwest.
- The Mauryan Empire extended from Hindukush to the Bay of Bengal in the east and Gujarat in the west, as well as the Himalayas in the north to the Krishna river in the south.
- Thus, the war between Chandragupta and the Greek King Seleucus was very important.
