HELP ASAP!!!! PLEASE How were Chandragupta and Asoka different? -Chandragupta was passionate about following Buddhism, but Asoka only used it as a way to pacify his people. -Chandragupta used his military to enforce his rule, while Asoka was opposed to violence and used his moral example to rule. -Chandragupta was able to unify the people of India, but Asoka forced divisions among the people when he converted to Buddhism. -Chandragupta believed that nature was so important that he planted many mango groves, while Asoka focused more on building fortresses to protect his people.
