Before Ashoka, the Mauryan empire excluded __________.

  • A.the North-West
  • B.the North
  • C.the East
  • D.the South-East and a part of the South

Answer: D

Before Ashoka the empire excluded the South-East and a part of the South.

The second paragraph says the empire already 'included the greater part of India and extended right into Central Asia. Only the South-East and a part of the South were beyond its sway.'

The North-West was Ashoka's own province before he became emperor, and the North is in the greater part. The East, Kalinga on the east coast, was added by Ashoka's conquest.
