The greatest of Alexander's battles in India was against Porus, one of the most p ...

You will note that several famous philosophers were contemporary of Lord Mahavira, and that 13-15th century was the age of reform in India as well ...

Chandragupta Maurya (321-297 BC) He was an adventurer rather than a king.
