 Kingdom Of Magadha

Falling briefly under the sway of Alexander the Great and his Macedonian successors, it was conquered in 321 BC by Chandragupta Maurya, who made it the center of his Mauryan Empire.
Although Magadha declined after the Mauryan dynasty died out in 185 BC, it was raised to new heights of glory under the Gupta dynasty (AD 320-550?), during whose rule a stable peace encouraged intellectual and artistic accomplishments.
