D Correct answer
Explanation

Seleucus Nicator was one of Alexander's generals who ruled the eastern territories after Alexander's death. He formed a strategic alliance with Chandragupta Maurya, marrying his daughter (or a close female relative) to Chandragupta. In exchange, Seleucus received 500 war elephants. Ptolemy controlled Egypt, not the eastern provinces.
