Asoka is considered the greatest of all Mauryan rulers because, during his reign, he conquered and expanded the territory, which covered almost the whole of India. He made a rich and strong kingdom. After becoming a Buddhist, he worked to improve the lives of his people. He built roads and planted trees along with them, dug wells, built rest houses for travelers, built temples, and spread Buddhism along the region and beyond. Because of all this, he was a well-respected and esteemed leader.
