He was the grandson of Chandragupta Maurya, the founder of the Mauryan Empire. Ashoka is best known for his military conquests, which extended the Mauryan Empire to its greatest extent. However, he is also known for his Buddhist reforms and his promotion of non-violence.<\/p>\n<p>Goa was one of the many territories that Ashoka conquered during his reign. He annexed the region in 265 BCE, after defeating the Satavahana dynasty. Ashoka&#8217;s conquest of Goa marked the beginning of the Mauryan Empire&#8217;s rule over the region.
