What is one effect of the extension of the Maurya Empire around 260 BC?

Bindusara expired in 272 BCE, and his son, Ashoka the Great, replaced him (304-232 BCE). Ashoka (r. 272-232 BCE) was a superb fighter as a young prince, crushing rebellions in Ujjain and Taxila.

Explanation:

From 322 BCE until his early retirement and surrender in favour of his son, Bindusara, in 298 BCE, Chandragupta Maurya ruled. Bindusara (320-272 BCE) was Maurya's son and Durdhara's queen. Bindusara pushed the Maurya Empire southward during his tenure, using Chanakya as his counsellor. He united 16 nations under the Maurya Empire, conquering nearly the whole Indian peninsula. The friendly Dravidian kingdoms of the Cholas, ruled by King Ilamcetcenni, the Pandyas, and the Cheras, were disregarded by Bindusara. Besides these southern territories, Kalinga (modern-day Odisha) was India's only kingdom that was not ruled by Bindusara.

Explanation:

The quest to expand the Maurya Empire into the Deccan plateau began in 300 B.C.E when Bindusaya, son of Chandragupta started conquering several kingdoms in order to achieve his aim.

Asoka took it upon himself to conquer the Kainga Kingdom.

He was successful in this war which he engaged in, in 262 B.C.E, but the result of the war also affected him tremendously.
