Ashoka (also called Ashoka the Great) was the grandson of Chandragupta Maurya, founder of the Mauryan Empire. Ashoka succeeded his father Bindusara and became one of India's most famous emperors after the Kalinga War. Samudra Gupta was a later ruler from the Gupta dynasty, while Krishna Dev Rai and Bimbisar belong to different periods entirely.
