Historical evidence suggests that Bindusara died in the 270s BCE. According to Upinder Singh, Bindusara died around 273 BCE. [48] Alain Daniélou believes that he died around 274 BCE. [65] Sailendra Nath Sen believes that he died around 273-272 BCE, and that his death was followed by a four-year struggle of succession, after which his son Ashoka became the emperor in 269-268 BCE. [67] According to the Mahavamsa , Bindusara reigned for 28 years. [73] The Vayu Purana , which names Chandragupta's successor as "Bhadrasara", states that he ruled for 25 years. [74] Ashoka [ edit ] Main article: Ashoka Aśoka pillar capital at Sarnath . ca. 250 BCE. Ashoka pillar at Vaishali . Fragment of the 6th Pillar Edict of Ashoka (238 BCE), in Brahmi , sandstone, British Museum . As a young prince, Ashoka ( r . 272–232 BCE) was a brilliant commander who crushed revolts in Ujjain and Takshashila. As monarch he was ambitious and aggressive, re-asserting the Empire's superiority in southern and western India. But it was his conquest of Kalinga (262–261 BCE) which proved to be the pivotal event of his life. Ashoka used Kalinga to project power over a large region by building a fortification there and securing it as a possession. [75] Although Ashoka's army succeeded in overwhelming Kalinga forces of royal soldiers and civilian units, an estimated 100,000 soldiers and civilians were killed in the furious warfare, including over 10,000 of Ashoka's own men. Hundreds of thousands of people were adversely affected by the destruction and fallout of war. When he personally witnessed the devastation, Ashoka began feeling remorse. Although the annexation of Kalinga was completed, Ashoka embraced the teachings of Buddhism , and renounced war and violence. He sent out missionaries to travel around Asia and spread Buddhism to other countries. [ citation needed ]

Ashoka implemented principles of ahimsa by banning hunting and violent sports activity and ending indentured and forced labor (many thousands of people in war-ravaged Kalinga had been forced into hard labour and servitude). While he maintained a large and powerful army, to keep the peace and maintain authority, Ashoka expanded friendly relations with states across Asia and Europe, and he sponsored Buddhist missions. He undertook a massive public works building campaign across the country. Over 40 years of peace, harmony and prosperity made Ashoka one of the most successful and famous monarchs in Indian history. He remains an idealized figure of inspiration in modern India. [ citation needed ] The Edicts of Ashoka , set in stone, are found throughout the Subcontinent. Ranging from as far west as Afghanistan and as far south as Andhra ( Nellore District ), Ashoka's edicts state his policies and accomplishments. Although predominantly written in Prakrit, two of them were written in Greek , and one in both Greek and Aramaic . Ashoka's edicts refer to the Greeks, Kambojas , and Gandharas as peoples forming a frontier region of his empire. They also attest to Ashoka's having sent envoys to the Greek rulers in the West as far as the Mediterranean. The edicts precisely name each of the rulers of the Hellenic world at the time such as Amtiyoko ( Antiochus ), Tulamaya ( Ptolemy ), Amtikini ( Antigonos ), Maka ( Magas ) and Alikasudaro ( Alexander ) as recipients of Ashoka's proselytism. [ citation needed ] The Edicts also accurately locate their territory "600 yojanas away" (a yojanas being about 7 miles), corresponding to the distance between the center of India and Greece (roughly 4,000 miles).

Decline [ edit ] Ashoka was followed for 50 years by a succession of weaker kings. He was succeeded by Dasharatha Maurya , who was Ashoka's grandson. None of Ashoka's sons could ascend the throne after him. Mahendra, his first born, was on to spread Buddhism in the world. Kunala Maurya was blind hence couldn't ascend the throne and Tivala, son of Kaurwaki, died even earlier than Ashoka. Another son, Jalauka, does not have much story behind him. The empire lost many territories under Dasharatha, which were later reconquered by Samprati , Kunala's son. Post Samprati, the Mauryas slowly lost many territories. In 180 BCE, Brihadratha Maurya , was killed by his general Pushyamitra Shunga in a military parade without any heir. Hence, the great Maurya empire finally ended, giving rise to the Shunga Empire . Shunga coup (185 BCE) [ edit ] Buddhist records such as the Ashokavadana write that the assassination of Brihadratha and the rise of the Shunga empire led to a wave of religious persecution for Buddhists , [77] and a resurgence of Hinduism . According to Sir John Marshall , [78] Pushyamitra may have been the main author of the persecutions, although later Shunga kings seem to have been more supportive of Buddhism. Other historians, such as Etienne Lamotte [79] and Romila Thapar , [80] among others, have argued that archaeological evidence in favour of the allegations of persecution of Buddhists are lacking, and that the extent and magnitude of the atrocities have been exaggerated.

Establishment of the Indo-Greek Kingdom (180 BCE) [ edit ] Main article: Indo-Greek Kingdom The fall of the Mauryas left the Khyber Pass unguarded, and a wave of foreign invasion followed. The Greco-Bactrian king, Demetrius , capitalized on the break-up, and he conquered southern Afghanistan and parts of northwestern India around 180 BCE, forming the Indo-Greek Kingdom . The Indo-Greeks would maintain holdings on the trans-Indus region, and make forays into central India, for about a century. Under them, Buddhism flourished, and one of their kings, Menander , became a famous figure of Buddhism; he was to establish a new capital of Sagala, the modern city of Sialkot . However, the extent of their domains and the lengths of their rule are subject to much debate. Numismatic evidence indicates that they retained holdings in the subcontinent right up to the birth of Christ. Although the extent of their successes against indigenous powers such as the Shungas , Satavahanas , and Kalingas are unclear, what is clear is that Scythian tribes, renamed Indo-Scythians , brought about the demise of the Indo-Greeks from around 70 BCE and retained lands in the trans-Indus, the region of Mathura , and Gujarat. [ citation needed ] Administration [ edit ] Statuettes of the Mauryan era The Empire was divided into four provinces, with the imperial capital at Pataliputra . From Ashokan edicts, the names of the four provincial capitals are Tosali (in the east), Ujjain (in the west), Suvarnagiri (in the south), and Taxila (in the north). The head of the provincial administration was the Kumara (royal prince), who governed the provinces as king's representative. The kumara was assisted by Mahamatyas and council of ministers. This organizational structure was reflected at the imperial level with the Emperor and his Mantriparishad (Council of Ministers). [ citation needed ]

Historians theorise that the organisation of the Empire was in line with the extensive bureaucracy described by Kautilya in the Arthashastra : a sophisticated civil service governed everything from municipal hygiene to international trade. The expansion and defense of the empire was made possible by what appears to have been one of the largest armies in the world during the Iron Age . [81] According to Megasthenes, the empire wielded a military of 600,000 infantry, 30,000 cavalry, 8,000 chariots and 9,000 war elephants besides followers and attendants. [82] A vast espionage system collected intelligence for both internal and external security purposes. Having renounced offensive warfare and expansionism, Ashoka nevertheless continued to maintain this large army, to protect the Empire and instil stability and peace across West and South Asia. [ citation needed ] Local Government [ edit ] Arthashastra and Megasthenes accounts of Pataliputra describe the intricate municipal system formed by Maurya empire to govern its cities. A city counsel made up of thirty commissioners was divided into six committees or boards which governed the city. The first board fixed wages and looked after provided goods, second board made arrangement for foreign dignitaries, tourists and businessmen, third board made records and registrations, fourth looked after manufactured goodsand sale of commodities, fifth board regulated trade, issued licenses and checked weights and measurements, sixth board collected sales taxes. Some cities such as taxila had autonomy to issue their own coins. The city counsel had officers who looked after public welfare such as maintenance of roads, public buildings, markets, hospitals, educational institutions etc. [83] The official head of the village was Gramika (in towns Nagarika ). [84] The city counsel also had some magisterial powers.

Economy [ edit ] See also: Economic history of India and Coinage of India Maurya statuette, 2nd century BCE. For the first time in South Asia , political unity and military security allowed for a common economic system and enhanced trade and commerce, with increased agricultural productivity. The previous situation involving hundreds of kingdoms, many small armies, powerful regional chieftains, and internecine warfare, gave way to a disciplined central authority. Farmers were freed of tax and crop collection burdens from regional kings, paying instead to a nationally administered and strict-but-fair system of taxation as advised by the principles in the Arthashastra . Chandragupta Maurya established a single currency across India, and a network of regional governors and administrators and a civil service provided justice and security for merchants, farmers and traders. The Mauryan army wiped out many gangs of bandits, regional private armies, and powerful chieftains who sought to impose their own supremacy in small areas. Although regimental in revenue collection, Maurya also sponsored many public works and waterways to enhance productivity, while internal trade in India expanded greatly due to new-found political unity and internal peace. [ citation needed ] Under the Indo-Greek friendship treaty, and during Ashoka's reign, an international network of trade expanded. The Khyber Pass , on the modern boundary of Pakistan and Afghanistan , became a strategically important port of trade and intercourse with the outside world. Greek states and Hellenic kingdoms in West Asia became important trade partners of India. Trade also extended through the Malay peninsula into Southeast Asia. India's exports included silk goods and textiles, spices and exotic foods. The external world came across new scientific knowledge and technology with expanding trade with the Mauryan Empire. Ashoka also sponsored the construction of thousands of roads, waterways, canals, hospitals, rest-houses and other public works. The easing of many over-rigorous administrative practices, including those regarding taxation and crop collection, helped increase productivity and economic activity across the Empire.

In many ways, the economic situation in the Mauryan Empire is analogous to the Roman Empire of several centuries later. Both had extensive trade connections and both had organizations similar to corporations . While Rome had organizational entities which were largely used for public state-driven projects, Mauryan India had numerous private commercial entities. These existed purely for private commerce and developed before the Mauryan Empire itself. [85] [ unreliable source? ] Maurya Empire coinage Hoard of mostly Mauryan coins.

[86] Religion [ edit ] Jainism [ edit ] Bhadrabahu Cave, Shravanabelagola where Chandragupta is said to have died Chandragupta Maurya embraced Jainism after retiring, when he renounced his throne and material possessions to join a wandering group of Jain monks. Chandragupta was a disciple of the Jain monk Acharya Bhadrabahu . It is said that in his last days, he observed the rigorous but self-purifying Jain ritual of santhara (fast unto death), at Shravana Belgola in Karnataka . [87] [54] [88] [53] Samprati , the grandson of Ashoka , also patronized Jainism. Samprati was influenced by the teachings of Jain monks like Suhastin and he is said to have built 125,000 derasars across India. [89] Some of them are still found in the towns of Ahmedabad, Viramgam, Ujjain, and Palitana. [ citation needed ] It is also said that just like Ashoka, Samprati sent messengers and preachers to Greece , Persia and the Middle East for the spread of Jainism, but, to date, no research has been done in this area. [90] [91]

Thus, Jainism became a vital force under the Mauryan Rule. Chandragupta and Samprati are credited for the spread of Jainism in South India . Hundreds of thousands of temples and stupas are said to have been erected during their reigns. Buddhism [ edit ] The stupa , which contained the relics of Buddha, at the center of the Sanchi complex was originally built by the Maurya Empire, but the balustrade around it is Sunga , and the decorative gateways are from the later Satavahana period. The Dharmarajika stupa in Taxila , modern Pakistan , is also thought to have been established by Emperor Asoka . Magadha , the centre of the empire, was also the birthplace of Buddhism . Ashoka initially practised Hinduism but later embraced Buddhism; following the Kalinga War , he renounced expansionism and aggression, and the harsher injunctions of the Arthashastra on the use of force, intensive policing, and ruthless measures for tax collection and against rebels. Ashoka sent a mission led by his son Mahinda and daughter Sanghamitta to Sri Lanka , whose king Tissa was so charmed with Buddhist ideals that he adopted them himself and made Buddhism the state religion. Ashoka sent many Buddhist missions to West Asia , Greece and South East Asia , and commissioned the construction of monasteries and schools, as well as the publication of Buddhist literature across the empire. He is believed to have built as many as 84,000 stupas across India, such as Sanchi and Mahabodhi Temple , and he increased the popularity of Buddhism in Afghanistan , Thailand and North Asia including Siberia . Ashoka helped convene the Third Buddhist Council of India's and South Asia's Buddhist orders near his capital, a council that undertook much work of reform and expansion of the Buddhist religion. Indian merchants embraced Buddhism and played a large role in spreading the religion across the Mauryan Empire. [92]

Architectural remains [ edit ] Main articles: Edicts of Ashoka , Sanchi Stupa , and Mauryan art Mauryan architecture in the Barabar Caves . Lomas Rishi Cave . 3rd century BCE. The greatest monument of this period, executed in the reign of Chandragupta Maurya , was the old palace at Paliputra, modern Kumhrar in Patna . Excavations have unearthed the remains of the palace, which is thought to have been an group of several buildings, the most important of which was an immense pillared hall supported on a high substratum of timbers. The pillars were set in regular rows, thus dividing the hall into a number of smaller square bays. The number of columns is 80, each about 7 meters high. According to the eyewitness account of Megasthenes , the palace was chiefly constructed of timber, and was considered to exceed in splendour and magnificence the palaces of Susa and Ecbatana, its gilded pillars being adorned with golden vines and silver birds. The buildings stood in an extensive park studded with fish ponds and furnished with a great variety of ornamental trees and shrubs. [93] [ better source needed ] Kauṭilya's Arthashastra also gives the method of palace construction from this period. Later fragments of stone pillars, including one nearly complete, with their round tapering shafts and smooth polish, indicate that Ashoka was responsible for the construction of the stone columns which replaced the earlier wooden ones.

An early stupa , 6 meters in diameter, with fallen umbrella on side. Chakpat, near Chakdara . Probably Maurya, 3rd century BCE. During the Ashokan period, stonework was of a highly diversified order and comprised lofty free-standing pillars, railings of stupas , lion thrones and other colossal figures. The use of stone had reached such great perfection during this time that even small fragments of stone art were given a high lustrous polish resembling fine enamel. This period marked the beginning of the Buddhist school of architecture. Ashoka was responsible for the construction of several stupas , which were large domes and bearing symbols of Buddha. The most important ones are located at Sanchi , Bharhut , Amaravati , Bodhgaya and Nagarjunakonda . The most widespread examples of Mauryan architecture are the Ashoka pillars and carved edicts of Ashoka, often exquisitely decorated, with more than 40 spread throughout the Indian subcontinent .

Pillar and its inscription (the "Schism Edict") upon discovery. The capital nowadays. [95] Natural history [ edit ] The two Yakshas , possibly 3rd century BCE, found in Pataliputra . The two Brahmi inscriptions starting with ... ( Yakhe... for "Yaksha...") are paleographically of a later date, circa 2nd century CE Kushan . [96] The protection of animals in India became serious business by the time of the Maurya dynasty; being the first empire to provide a unified political entity in India, the attitude of the Mauryas towards forests, their denizens, and fauna in general is of interest. [97] The Mauryas firstly looked at forests as resources. For them, the most important forest product was the elephant. Military might in those times depended not only upon horses and men but also battle-elephants ; these played a role in the defeat of Seleucus , one of Alexander 's former generals. The Mauryas sought to preserve supplies of elephants since it was cheaper and took less time to catch, tame and train wild elephants than to raise them. Kautilya 's Arthashastra contains not only maxims on ancient statecraft, but also unambiguously specifies the responsibilities of officials such as the Protector of the Elephant Forests . [98] On the border of the forest, he should establish a forest for elephants guarded by foresters. The Office of the Chief Elephant Forester should with the help of guards protect the elephants in any terrain. The slaying of an elephant is punishable by death. — Arthashastra
http://web.archive.org/web/20191212005515id_/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurya_Empire_p24
The Mauryas also designated separate forests to protect supplies of timber, as well as lions and tigers for skins. Elsewhere the Protector of Animals also worked to eliminate thieves, tigers and other predators to render the woods safe for grazing cattle. [ citation needed ] The Mauryas valued certain forest tracts in strategic or economic terms and instituted curbs and control measures over them. They regarded all forest tribes with distrust and controlled them with bribery and political subjugation. They employed some of them, the food-gatherers or aranyaca to guard borders and trap animals. The sometimes tense and conflict-ridden relationship nevertheless enabled the Mauryas to guard their vast empire. [99] When Ashoka embraced Buddhism in the latter part of his reign, he brought about significant changes in his style of governance, which included providing protection to fauna, and even relinquished the royal hunt. He was the first ruler in history [ failed verification ] to advocate conservation measures for wildlife and even had rules inscribed in stone edicts. The edicts proclaim that many followed the king's example in giving up the slaughter of animals; one of them proudly states: [99] Our king killed very few animals. — Edict on Fifth Pillar However, the edicts of Ashoka reflect more the desire of rulers than actual events; the mention of a 100 'panas' (coins) fine for poaching deer in royal hunting preserves shows that rule-breakers did exist. The legal restrictions conflicted with the practices freely exercised by the common people in hunting, felling, fishing and setting fires in forests. [99]

Contacts with the Hellenistic world [ edit ] Mauryan ringstone, with standing goddess. Northwest Pakistan. 3rd Century BCE Foundation of the Empire [ edit ] Relations with the Hellenistic world may have started from the very beginning of the Maurya Empire. Plutarch reports that Chandragupta Maurya met with Alexander the Great , probably around Taxila in the northwest: [100] "Sandrocottus, when he was a stripling, saw Alexander himself, and we are told that he often said in later times that Alexander narrowly missed making himself master of the country, since its king was hated and despised on account of his baseness and low birth". Plutarch 62-4 [101] [100] Reconquest of the Northwest (c. 317–316 BCE) [ edit ] Chandragupta ultimately occupied Northwestern India, in the territories formerly ruled by the Greeks, where he fought the satraps (described as "Prefects" in Western sources) left in place after Alexander (Justin), among whom may have been Eudemus , ruler in the western Punjab until his departure in 317 BCE or Peithon, son of Agenor , ruler of the Greek colonies along the Indus until his departure for Babylon in 316 BCE. [ citation needed ] "India, after the death of Alexander, had assassinated his prefects, as if shaking the burden of servitude. The author of this liberation was Sandracottos, but he had transformed liberation in servitude after victory, since, after taking the throne, he himself oppressed the very people he has liberated from foreign domination" Justin XV.4.12–13 [102]
http://web.archive.org/web/20191212005515id_/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurya_Empire_p26
"Later, as he was preparing war against the prefects of Alexander, a huge wild elephant went to him and took him on his back as if tame, and he became a remarkable fighter and war leader. Having thus acquired royal power, Sandracottos possessed India at the time Seleucos was preparing future glory." Justin XV.4.19 [103] Conflict and alliance with Seleucus (305 BCE) [ edit ] Main article: Seleucid–Mauryan war A map showing the north western border of Maurya Empire, including its various neighboring states. Seleucus I Nicator , the Macedonian satrap of the Asian portion of Alexander's former empire, conquered and put under his own authority eastern territories as far as Bactria and the Indus ( Appian , History of Rome , The Syrian Wars 55), until in 305 BCE he entered into a confrontation with Emperor Chandragupta: "Always lying in wait for the neighbouring nations, strong in arms and persuasive in council, he [Seleucus] acquired Mesopotamia, Armenia, 'Seleucid' Cappadocia, Persis, Parthia, Bactria, Arabia, Tapouria, Sogdia, Arachosia, Hyrcania, and other adjacent peoples that had been subdued by Alexander, as far as the river Indus, so that the boundaries of his empire were the most extensive in Asia after that of Alexander. The whole region from Phrygia to the Indus was subject to Seleucus". Appian , History of Rome , The Syrian Wars 55 [104]
http://web.archive.org/web/20191212005515id_/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurya_Empire_p27
Though no accounts of the conflict remain, it is clear that Seleucus fared poorly against the Indian Emperor as he failed to conquer any territory, and in fact was forced to surrender much that was already his. Regardless, Seleucus and Chandragupta ultimately reached a settlement and through a treaty sealed in 305 BCE, Seleucus, according to Strabo, ceded a number of territories to Chandragupta, including eastern Afghanistan and Balochistan . [ citation needed ] Marital alliance [ edit ] Chandragupta and Seleucus concluded a peace treaty and a marital alliance in 303 BCE. Chandragupta received vast territories and in a return gave Seleucus 500 war elephants , [105] [106] [107] [108] [109] a military asset which would play a decisive role at the Battle of Ipsus in 301 BCE. [110] In addition to this treaty, Seleucus dispatched an ambassador, Megasthenes , to Chandragupta, and later Deimakos to his son Bindusara , at the Mauryan court at Pataliputra (modern Patna in Bihar ). Later, Ptolemy II Philadelphus , the ruler of Ptolemaic Egypt and contemporary of Ashoka , is also recorded by Pliny the Elder as having sent an ambassador named Dionysius to the Mauryan court. [111] [ better source needed ] Mainstream scholarship asserts that Chandragupta received vast territory west of the Indus, including the Hindu Kush , modern-day Afghanistan , and the Balochistan province of Pakistan . [112] [113] Archaeologically, concrete indications of Mauryan rule, such as the inscriptions of the Edicts of Ashoka , are known as far as Kandahar in southern Afghanistan.

“ He (Seleucus) crossed the Indus and waged war with Sandrocottus [Maurya], king of the Indians, who dwelt on the banks of that stream, until they came to an understanding with each other and contracted a marriage relationship. ” “ After having made a treaty with him (Sandrakotos) and put in order the Orient situation, Seleucos went to war against Antigonus . ” — Junianus Justinus , Historiarum Philippicarum, libri XLIV , XV.4.15 The treaty on " Epigamia " implies lawful marriage between Greeks and Indians was recognized at the State level, although it is unclear whether it occurred among dynastic rulers or common people, or both. [ citation needed ] Exchange of presents [ edit ] Classical sources have also recorded that following their treaty, Chandragupta and Seleucus exchanged presents, such as when Chandragupta sent various aphrodisiacs to Seleucus: [60] "And Theophrastus says that some contrivances are of wondrous efficacy in such matters [as to make people more amorous]. And Phylarchus confirms him, by reference to some of the presents which Sandrakottus, the king of the Indians, sent to Seleucus; which were to act like charms in producing a wonderful degree of affection, while some, on the contrary, were to banish love." Athenaeus of Naucratis , " The deipnosophists " Book I, chapter 32 [114] His son Bindusara 'Amitraghata' (Slayer of Enemies) also is recorded in Classical sources as having exchanged presents with Antiochus I : [60]

"But dried figs were so very much sought after by all men (for really, as Aristophanes says, "There's really nothing nicer than dried figs"), that even Amitrochates, the king of the Indians, wrote to Antiochus , entreating him (it is Hegesander who tells this story) to buy and send him some sweet wine, and some dried figs, and a sophist ; and that Antiochus wrote to him in answer, "The dry figs and the sweet wine we will send you; but it is not lawful for a sophist to be sold in Greece." Athenaeus , " Deipnosophistae " XIV.67 [115] Greek population in India [ edit ] An influential and large Greek population was present in the northwest of the Indian subcontinent under Ashoka's rule, possibly remnants of Alexander's conquests in the Indus Valley region. In the Rock Edicts of Ashoka , some of them inscribed in Greek, Ashoka states that the Greeks within his dominion were converted to Buddhism: "Here in the king's dominion among the Greeks , the Kambojas , the Nabhakas, the Nabhapamkits, the Bhojas, the Pitinikas, the Andhras and the Palidas, everywhere people are following Beloved-of-the-Gods' instructions in Dharma ." (Rock Edict Number 13 ) An Edict of Ashoka in Shahbazbarhi, KPK, Pakistan. "Now, in times past (officers) called Mahamatras of morality did not exist before. Mahdmatras of morality were appointed by me (when I had been) anointed thirteen years. These are occupied with all sects in establishing morality, in promoting morality, and for the welfare and happiness of those who are devoted to morality (even) among the Greeks , Kambojas and Gandharas , and whatever other western borderers (of mine there are)."

Fragments of Edict 13 have been found in Greek, and a full Edict, written in both Greek and Aramaic, has been discovered in Kandahar . It is said to be written in excellent Classical Greek, using sophisticated philosophical terms. In this Edict, Ashoka uses the word Eusebeia (" Piety ") as the Greek translation for the ubiquitous " Dharma " of his other Edicts written in Prakrit : [ non-primary source needed ] "Ten years (of reign) having been completed, King Piodasses (Ashoka) made known (the doctrine of) Piety ( εὐσέβεια , Eusebeia ) to men; and from this moment he has made men more pious, and everything thrives throughout the whole world. And the king abstains from (killing) living beings, and other men and those who (are) huntsmen and fishermen of the king have desisted from hunting. And if some (were) intemperate, they have ceased from their intemperance as was in their power; and obedient to their father and mother and to the elders, in opposition to the past also in the future, by so acting on every occasion, they will live better and more happily".

Territories "conquered by the Dharma" according to Major Rock Edict No.13 of Ashoka (260–218 BCE). [117] [118] Also, in the Edicts of Ashoka , Ashoka mentions the Hellenistic kings of the period as recipients of his Buddhist proselytism, although no Western historical record of this event remains: "The conquest by Dharma has been won here, on the borders, and even six hundred yojanas (5,400–9,600 km) away, where the Greek king Antiochos rules, beyond there where the four kings named Ptolemy , Antigonos , Magas and Alexander rule, likewise in the south among the Cholas , the Pandyas , and as far as Tamraparni ( Sri Lanka )."

[ non-primary source needed ] Ashoka also encouraged the development of herbal medicine , for men and animals, in their territories: "Everywhere within Beloved-of-the-Gods, King Piyadasi's [Ashoka's] domain, and among the people beyond the borders, the Cholas , the Pandyas , the Satiyaputras, the Keralaputras, as far as Tamraparni and where the Greek king Antiochos rules, and among the kings who are neighbors of Antiochos, everywhere has Beloved-of-the-Gods, King Piyadasi, made provision for two types of medical treatment: medical treatment for humans and medical treatment for animals. Wherever medical herbs suitable for humans or animals are not available, I have had them imported and grown. Wherever medical roots or fruits are not available I have had them imported and grown. Along roads I have had wells dug and trees planted for the benefit of humans and animals". 2nd Rock Edict [ non-primary source needed ]

The Greeks in India even seem to have played an active role in the propagation of Buddhism, as some of the emissaries of Ashoka, such as Dharmaraksita , are described in Pali sources as leading Greek (" Yona ") Buddhist monks, active in Buddhist proselytism (the Mahavamsa , XII [119] [ non-primary source needed ] ). Subhagasena and Antiochos III (206 BCE) [ edit ] Sophagasenus was an Indian Mauryan ruler of the 3rd century BCE, described in ancient Greek sources, and named Subhagasena or Subhashasena in Prakrit . His name is mentioned in the list of Mauryan princes [ citation needed ] , and also in the list of the Yadava dynasty, as a descendant of Pradyumna. He may have been a grandson of Ashoka , or Kunala , the son of Ashoka. He ruled an area south of the Hindu Kush , possibly in Gandhara . Antiochos III , the Seleucid king, after having made peace with Euthydemus in Bactria , went to India in 206 BCE and is said to have renewed his friendship with the Indian king there: "He (Antiochus) crossed the Caucasus and descended into India; renewed his friendship with Sophagasenus the king of the Indians; received more elephants, until he had a hundred and fifty altogether; and having once more provisioned his troops, set out again personally with his army: leaving Androsthenes of Cyzicus the duty of taking home the treasure which this king had agreed to hand over to him".

But in the belt of land on either side of the Nerbudda, the Godavari and the upper Mahanadi there were, in all probability, certain areas that were technically outside the limits of the empire proper. Ashoka evidently draws a distinction between the forests and the inhabiting tribes which are in the dominions ( vijita ) and peoples on the border ( anta avijita ) for whose benefit some of the special edicts were issued. Certain vassal tribes are specifically mentioned." (Raychaudhuri & Mukherjee pp. 275–6)

Manchester United are currently the record title winners in the English top flight having won the division a total of 20 times since 1889. Most of these wins came after the inception of the Premier League at the start of the 1992/93 season under the leadership of manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Indeed, United’s most recent title came in the 2012-13 season, which was Ferguson's final season of management before his retirement. Manchester United – footballing giant As well as being the most successful team in English top flight history, Manchester United is a globally recognizable brand. The club recorded revenue of almost 776 million euros in 2018 , almost half of which was generated in the commercial segment . With such a marketable brand, it is unsurprising that the club’s brand value has more than tripled since 2011 . As a result, Manchester United was the most valuable soccer brand worldwide in 2018 , fighting off stiff competition from other giants of the game such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich. Power of the Premier League The Premier League is undoubtedly one of the biggest soccer leagues in the world and is followed by fans from across the globe. As a result, the TV broadcasting rights revenue that the league has generated has skyrocketed from 191 million U.S. dollars in its inaugural 1992 season, to over 5.1 billion U.S. dollars in 2019 . Another important revenue stream for Premier League clubs is kit sponsorships, which amounted to over 315 million pounds in the 2018/19 season .

Area is 2-dimensional like a carpet or an area rug. A triangle is a three-sided polygon. We will look at several types of triangles in this lesson. To find the area of a triangle, multiply the base by the height, and then divide by 2. The division by 2 comes from the fact that a parallelogram can be divided into 2 triangles. For example, in the diagram to the left, the area of each triangle is equal to one-half the area of the parallelogram. Since the area of a parallelogram is A = B * H, the area of a triangle must be one-half the area of a parallelogram. Thus, the formula for the area of a triangle is: or where b is the base, h is the height and · means multiply.
http://web.archive.org/web/20200826195101id_/https://www.mathgoodies.com/lessons/vol1/area_triangle_p1
The base and height of a triangle must be perpendicular to each other. In each of the examples below, the base is a side of the triangle. However, depending on the triangle, the height may or may not be a side of the triangle. For example, in the right triangle in Example 2, the height is a side of the triangle since it is perpendicular to the base. In the triangles in Examples 1 and 3, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the base, so a dotted line is drawn to represent the height. Example 1: Find the area of an acute triangle with a base of 15 inches and a height of 4 inches. Solution: = · (15 in) · (4 in) = · (60 in 2 ) = 30 in 2 Example 2: Find the area of a right triangle with a base of 6 centimeters and a height of 9 centimeters. Solution: = · (6 cm) · (9 cm) = · (54 cm 2 ) = 27 cm 2 Example 3: Find the area of an obtuse triangle with a base of 5 inches and a height of 8 inches. Solution: = · (5 in) · (8 in) = · (40 in 2 ) = 20 in 2 Example 4: The area of a triangle shaped mat is 18 square feet and the base is 3 feet. Find the height. (Note: The triangle in the illustration to the right is NOT drawn to scale.)

Solution: In this example, we are given the area of a triangle and one dimension, and we are asked to work backwards to find the other dimension. 18 ft 2 = \B7 (3 ft) · h Multiplying both sides of the equation by 2, we get: 36 ft 2 = (3 ft) · h Dividing both sides of the equation by 3 ft, we get: 12 ft = h Commuting this equation, we get: h = 12 ft Summary: Given the base and the height of a triangle, we can find the area. Given the area and either the base or the height of a triangle, we can find the other dimension. The formula for area of a triangle is: or where b is the base and h is the height.

She is often referred to as Eliza or Lizzy by her friends and family. Elizabeth is the second child in a family of five daughters . Though the circumstances of the time and environment push her to seek a marriage of convenience for economic security, Elizabeth wishes to marry for love. Elizabeth is regarded as the most admirable and endearing of Austen's heroines. [1] She is considered one of the most beloved characters in British literature [2] because of her complexity. Austen herself described Elizabeth as "as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." [3] Contents 1 Background 2 Analysis 2.1 An unconventional character 3 In popular culture 4 Depictions in film and television 4.1 Film 4.2 Television 5 References 6 Bibliography Background [ edit ] Elizabeth is the second eldest of the five Bennet sisters of the Longbourn estate, situated near the fictional market village of Meryton in Hertfordshire , England. She is 20 years old at the beginning of the novel. [4] Elizabeth is described as an intelligent young woman, with "a lively, playful disposition, which delighted in anything ridiculous". She often presents a playful good-natured impertinence that does not offend. Early in the novel she is depicted as being personally proud of her wit and her accuracy in judging the social behaviour and intentions of others.

Her father is a landowner , but his daughters cannot inherit because the estate is entailed upon the male line (it can only be inherited by male relatives). Upon his death, Longbourn will therefore be inherited by his cousin and nearest male relation, Mr William Collins , a clergyman for the Rosings Estate in Kent owned by Lady Catherine de Bourgh . This future provides the cause of Mrs Bennet's eagerness to have her daughters married off to wealthy men. Elizabeth is her father's favourite, described by him as having "something more of quickness than her sisters". In contrast, she is the least dear to her mother, especially after Elizabeth refuses a marriage proposal from Mr Collins. Her mother tends to contrast her negatively with her sisters Jane and Lydia, whom she considers superior in beauty and disposition, respectively, and does not understand her father's preference. Elizabeth is often upset and embarrassed by the impropriety and silliness of her mother and three younger sisters. Within her neighbourhood Elizabeth is considered a beauty and a charming young woman with "fine eyes", to which Mr Darcy is first drawn. Darcy is later attracted more particularly to her "light and pleasing" figure, the "easy playfulness" of her manners, her mind and personality, and eventually considers her "one of the handsomest women" in his acquaintance.

Analysis [ edit ] From the beginning, opinions have been divided on the character, Anne Isabella Milbanke gave a glowing review of the novel, while Mary Russell Mitford criticizes Elizabeth's lack of taste. [5] The modern exegetes are torn between admiration for the vitality of the character and the disappointment of seeing Elizabeth intentionally suppress her verve [6] and submit, at least outwardly, to male authority. [7] In Susan Fraiman's essay "The Humiliation of Elizabeth Bennett", the author criticises the fact that Elizabeth must forgo her development as a woman in order to ensure the success of "ties among men [such as her father and Darcy] with agendas of their own". [8] The Bennet sisters have only a relatively small dowry of £1,000; and as their family's estate will pass out of their hands when their father dies, the family faces a major social decline, giving the Bennet girls only a limited time in which to find a husband. [9] About feminist criticism of the character, the French critic Roger Martin du Gard wrote that primary purpose of Austen was to provide jouissance (enjoyment) to her readers, not preach, but the character of Elizabeth is able to manoeuvre within the male-dominated power structure of Regency England to assert her interests in a system that favours her father, Mr Darcy and the other male characters. [10] Gard noted that the novel hardly glorifies patriarchy since it is strongly implied that was the financial irresponsibility of Mr Bennet that has placed his family in a precarious social position. [10] Furthermore, it is Elizabeth who criticises her father for not doing more to teach her sisters Lydia and Catherine the value of a good character, which Mr Bennet disregards, leading to Lydia's eloping with Wickham. [11] Unlike the more superficial and/or selfish characters like Lydia, Wickham, Mr Collins, and Charlotte, who regard marriage as a simple matter of satisfying their own desires, for the more mature Elizabeth marriage is the cause of much reflection and serious thought on her part. [12]

The British literacy critic Robert Irvine stated that the reference in the novel to the militia being mobilised and lacking sufficient barracks, requiring them to set up camps in the countryside dates the setting of the novel to the years 1793–1795 as the militia was mobilised in 1793 after France declared war on the United Kingdom and the last of the barracks for the militia were completed by 1796. [13] Irvine argued that a central concern in Britain in the 1790s, when Austen wrote the first draft of Pride and Prejudice under the title First Impressions was the need for British elites, both national and regional to rally around the flag in face of the challenge from revolutionary France. [14] It is known that Austen was working on First Impressions by 1796 (it is not clear when she began working on the book) and finished off First Impressions in 1797. [15] Irvine states while the character of Elizabeth is a clearly middle-class while Mr Darcy is part of the aristocracy. [16] Irvine wrote "Elizabeth, in the end, is awed by Pemberly, and her story ends with her delighted submission to Darcy in marriage. It is gratitude that forms the foundation of Elizabeth Bennet's love for Fitzwilliam Darcy: caught in a reciprocal gaze with Darcy's portrait at Pemberly, impressed with the evidence of his social power that surrounds her, Elizabeth 'thought of his regard with a deeper sentiment of gratitude than it had ever raised before' ... Elizabeth's desire for Darcy does not happen despite the difference in their social situation: it is produced by that difference, and can be read as a vindication of the hierarchy which constructs that difference in the first place". [17] Irvine observes that Darcy spends about half his time in London while for people in Meryton London is a stylish place that is very far away, observing that a key difference is when one of the Bennett family is ill, they use the services of a local apothecary while Mr Darcy calls upon a surgeon from London. [18] In this regard, Irvine argued that the marriage of Elizabeth and Darcy stands for the union of local and national elites in Britain implicitly against the challenge to the status quo represented by the French republic. [19]

By contrast, the American scholar Rachel Brownstein argued that Elizabeth rejects two offers of marriage by the time she arrives at Pemberley, and notes in rejecting Mr Collins that the narrator of the novel paraphrases the feminist Mary Wollstonecraft that Elizabeth cannot love him because she is "a rational creature speaking the truth from her heart". [20] Brownstein notes that it after she reads Darcy's letter following her first rejection of him that leads her to say "Till this moment, I never knew myself". [21] Brownstein further states that Austen has it both ways in depicting Elizabeth as she uses much irony. After Elizabeth rejects Darcy and then realizes she loves him, she comments "no such happy marriage could now teach the admiring multitude what connubial felicity really was" as if she herself is aware that she is a character in a romance novel. [21] Later, she tells Darcy in thanking him for paying off Wickham's debts and ensuring Lydia's marriage might be wrong "for what become of the moral, if our comfort springs from a breach of promise, for I ought not to have mentioned the subject?". [21] Brownstein argues that Austen's ironical way of depicting Elizabeth allows her to present her heroine as both a "proto-feminist" and a "fairy-tale heroine". [21] At one point, Elizabeth says: "I am resolved to act in that manner, which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness, without reference to you , or to any other person wholly unconnected with me". [22] The American scholar Claudia Johnson wrote this was a surprisingly strong statement for a female character in 1813. [22] Likewise, Elizabeth does not defer to the traditional elite, saying of Lady Catherine's opposition to her marrying Darcy: "Neither duty nor honor nor gratitude have any possible claim on me, in the present instance. No principle of either, would be violated by my marriage with Mr Darcy". [23] In the same, Elizabeth defends her love of laughter as somewhat life-improving by saying: "I hope I never ridicule what is wise or good". [23] Elizabeth regarded herself as a competent to judge what is "wise and good", and refuses to let others dictate to her what she may or may not laugh at it, making into one of the most individualistic of Austen heroines. [23] However, Johnson noted that Austen hedged her bets here, reflecting the strict censorship imposed in Britain during the wars with France; Elizabeth reaffirms her wish to be part of the elite by marrying Darcy, instead of challenging it, as she says: "He is a gentleman; I am a gentleman's daughter; so far we are equal." [24] In the same way Austen avoids the issue of filial obedience – questioning of which would have marked out as a "radical" – by having Mrs Bennet tell her daughter she must marry Collins where her father says she must not. [22] However, the way in both Elizabeth's parents are portrayed as if not bad parents, then at least not entirely good parents, implies that Elizabeth is more sensible and able to judge people better than both her mother and father, making her the best one to decide who her husband should be. [22] Reflecting her strong character, Elizabeth complains that Bingley is a "slave of his designing friends", noting for all his pleasantness that he does not have it in him to really stand up for himself; Johnson wrote the "politically potent metaphor" of a "slave" would had cut deeply at a time when slavery was still legal in the British Empire. [25]

Susan Morgan regards Elizabeth's major flaw to be that she is "morally disengaged" – taking much of her philosophy from her father, Elizabeth observes her neighbours, never becoming morally obligated to make a stand. [26] Elizabeth sees herself as an ironic observer of the world, making fun of those around her. [27] Bennett's self-destination is one of skepticism and opposition to the world around her, and much of the novel concerns Bennett's struggle to find her own place in a world she rejects. [28] At one point, Elizabeth tells Darcy: "Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laught at them whenever I can". [29] Though Elizabeth is portrayed as intelligent, she often misjudges people around her because of her naivety-for example, misunderstanding the social pressures on her friend Charlotte to get married, is taken in completely for a time by Wickham and misjudges Darcy's character. [30] After hearing Wickham's account disparaging Darcy's character, and being advised by her sister Jane not to jump to conclusions, Elizabeth confidently tells her "I beg your pardon-one knows exactly what to think". [31] However, Elizabeth is able to see, albeit belatedly, that Wickham had misled her about Darcy, admitting she was too influenced by "every charm of air and address". [32] Gary Kelly argued that Austen as the daughter of a Church of England minister would have been very familiar with the Anglican view of life as a "romantic journey" in which God watches over stories of human pride, folly, fall and redemption by free will and the ability to learn from one's mistakes. [33] Kelly argued that aspects of the Anglican understanding of life and the universe can be seen in Elizabeth who after rejecting Darcy and then receives his letter explaining his actions rethinks her view of him, and comes to understand that her pride and prejudice had blinded her to who he really was, marking the beginning of her romantic journey of "suffering and endurance" that ends happily for her. [34]

After seeing Pemberley, Elizabeth realizes Darcy's good character, and as a chance to become part of society without compromising her values. [35] At Pemberley, Elizabeth sees the "whole scene" from one viewpoint and then sees the "objects were taking different positions" from another viewpoint while remaining beautiful, which is a metaphor for her subjectivity had influenced her view of the world. [36] Like other Austen heroines, Elizabeth likes to escape into the gardens and nature in general when under pressure. [37] For Austen, gardens were not only places of reflection and relaxation, but also symbols of femininity and of England. [38] The American scholar Alison Sulloway wrote: "Austen had seen and suffered enough causal exploitation so that she took the pastoral world under her tender but unobtrusive fictional protection, just as she felt protective towards human figures under the threat of abuse or neglect". [39] Beyond that, Napoleon had often talked of desire to make England's fair gardens and fields his own, speaking if England "...was a mere woman, ripe for his exploitation", so for Austen, the beauty of the English countryside served as a symbol of the England her brothers serving in the Royal Navy were fighting to protect. [37] Elizabeth's connection with nature leads to appreciate the beauty of Pemberley, which allows hers to see the good in Darcy. [40] Notably, Elizabeth is not guided by financial considerations, and refuses to seek favour with the wealthy aristocrat Lady Catherine de Bourgh. [41] Despite Mr Darcy's wealth, Elizabeth turns down his marriage proposals several times until she finally decides she loves him. [42] Johnson wrote that given the values of Regency England that it was inevitable and expected that a young woman should be married, but Elizabeth makes it clear that what she wants to marry a man she loves, not just to be married to somebody, which was a quietly subversive message for the time. [43]

In the early 19th century, there was a genre of "conduct books" settling out what were the rules for "propriety" for young women, and the scholar Mary Poovey argued in her 1984 book The Proper Lady and the Woman Writer examining the "conduct books" noted one of the main messages was that a "proper young lady" never expresses any sexual desire for a man. [44] Poovey argued that in this context that Elizabeth's wit is a merely her ways of defending herself from the rules of "propriety" set out by the conduct books as opposed of being a subversive force. [44] In this regard, Poovey argued that Austen played it safe by having Elizabeth abandon her wit when she falls in love with Darcy, taking her struggle into effort to mortify Darcy's pride instead of seeking him out because she loves him. [44] The conduct books had a double meaning of the word modesty, which meant both to be outwardly polite in one's conduct and to be ignorant of one's sexuality. [44] This double meaning of modesty placed women in a bind, since any young woman who outwardly conformed to expectations of modesty was not really modest at all, as she was attempting to hide her awareness of sexuality. [44] In the novel, when Elizabeth rejects Mr Collins's marriage proposal, she explains she is being modest in rejecting an offer from a man she cannot love, which leads her to be condemned for not really being modest. [44] Mr Collins often cites one of the more popular "conduct books", Sermons to Young Women , which was published in 1766, but was especially popular in the decades from 1790 to 1810. [45] Unlike the conduct books which declared that women should look back on the past as a way of self-examination, Elizabeth says: "Think only of the past as its remembrance gives you pleasure". [46]

Johnson wrote that changes in expectations for women's behavior since Austen's time has led many readers today to miss "Elizabeth's outrageous unconventionality" as she breaks many of the rules for women set out by the "conduct books". [45] Johnson noted that Collins approvingly quote from Sermons to Young Women women should never display any "briskness of air and levity of deportment", qualities that contrasted strongly with Elizabeth who has "a likely, playful disposition, which delighted in anything ridiculous". [47] The liveliness of Elizabeth also extends to the physical sphere, as she displays what Johnson called "an unladylike athleticism". [47] Elizabeth walks for miles, and constantly jumps, runs and rambles about, which was not considered conventional behavior for a well-bred lady in Regency England. [47] The narrator says that Elizabeth's temper is "to be happy", and Johnson wrote that her constant joy in life is what "makes her and her novel so distinctive". [48] Johnson wrote: "Elizabeth's relationship with Darcy resonates with a physical passion...The rapport between these two from start to finish is intimate, even racy". [49] Johnson wrote the way in which Elizabeth and Darcy pursue each in secret put their relationship "on the verge of an impropriety unique in Austen's fiction". [49] Many of the remarks made by Elizabeth to Darcy such as "Despise me if you dare" or his "I am not afraid of you" resound with sexual tension, which reflected "Austen's implicit approval of erotic love". [50]

An unconventional character [ edit ] In her letter to Cassandra dated 29 January 1813, Jane Austen wrote: "I must confess that I think her as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print, and how I shall be able to tolerate those who do not like her at least I do not know". [51] Austen herself wrote to Cassandra about one fan of her books that "Her liking Darcy & Elizth is enough". [52] The book notes that "Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies" are what delight Elizabeth, which Brownstein noted also applied to Austen as well. [53] This mix of energy and intelligence, and her gaiety and resilience make Elizabeth a true Stendhal heroine according to Tony Tanner , and he adds that there are not many English heroines that we can say that of. [54] Elizabeth Bowen , however, found her charmless, whilst to Gervase Fen she and her sisters were "intolerable...those husband-hunting minxes in Pride and Prejudice ". [55] In popular culture [ edit ] The character of Elizabeth Bennet, marked by intelligence and independent thinking, and her romance with the proud Mr Darcy have carried over into various theatrical retellings. Helen Fielding 's novel Bridget Jones's Diary , as well as the film series of the same name , is a modern adaptation of Pride and Prejudice , with Elizabeth as Renée Zellweger 's title character. In Gurinder Chadha 's Bollywood adaptation, Bride and Prejudice , Aishwarya Rai plays the Elizabeth character, Lalita Bakshi. In the 2008 television film Lost in Austen , actress Gemma Arterton plays a version of Lizzy who switches places with a modern-day young woman. Lily James starred as the zombie-slaying Elizabeth Bennet in the film version of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies , a popular novel by Seth Grahame-Smith . [56]

For a printer-friendly PDF version of this guide, click here This guide explains what a pie chart is, outlines the types of data that can be presented using a pie chart and provides some design tips to ensure that when you use pie charts to present data they are clear and easy to interpret. Other useful guides: Bar charts , Histograms , Presenting numerical data . What is a pie chart? A pie chart is a circular graph that shows the relative contribution that different categories contribute to an overall total. A wedge of the circle represents each category’s contribution, such that the graph resembles a pie that has been cut into different sized slices. Every 1% contribution that a category contributes to the total corresponds to a slice with an angle of 3.6 degrees.

What data can be presented using a pie chart? Pie charts are a visual way of displaying data that might otherwise be given in a small table. Pie charts are useful for displaying data that are classified into nominal or ordinal categories. Nominal data are categorised according to descriptive or qualitative information such as county of birth or type of pet owned. Ordinal data are similar but the different categories can also be ranked, for example in a survey people may be asked to say whether they classed something as very poor, poor, fair, good, very good. Pie charts are generally used to show percentage or proportional data and usually the percentage represented by each category is provided next to the corresponding slice of pie. Pie charts are good for displaying data for around 6 categories or fewer. When there are more categories it is difficult for the eye to distinguish between the relative sizes of the different sectors and so the chart becomes difficult to interpret. Design issues Pie charts provide a good visual representation of the data when the categories show some variation in size. When there are several similar-sized categories, a pie chart can end up looking cluttered and it may be difficult to interpret the data. In such cases consider whether a table would present the information more effectively.

It is usual for the different sectors of the pie chart to be arranged clockwise in order of magnitude. If there is a slice that does not contain a unique category of data but summarises several, for example “other types” or “other answers”, then even if it is not the smallest category it is usual to display it last in order that it does not detract from the named categories of interest. It is helpful to colour or shade the different slices so that they grade from dark to light tones as you move from the first to the last slice. Comparing pie charts Two or more pie charts can be used to compare two sets of data where the categories are the same or similar but there is a change in another variable, such as time or age. In such cases it is helpful to maintain the same ordering and colouring of slices in the second pie chart as the first in order to facilitate comparison. This may mean that in the second pie chart the slices are no longer presented in order of magnitude. If the two charts represent different sized totals show this by making the areas of the pie chart proportional to the totals they each represent. 3D effects and exploding pie charts Avoid design elements that detract from the message you are trying to convey such as 3D effects and exploding slices. These can produce optical effects that make it hard to compare different categories.

For example, in the 3D- exploding pie chart below, the slice representing Alton Towers appears quite a bit larger than that for Pleasureland although there is actually only a 1% difference between the two categories. Also, both slices for Chessington World and Legoland represent 10% but again they appear different sizes due to the 3D perspective. In this example separating (exploding) the different wedges of the pie chart also adds to the difficulty of interpreting the data and estimating the relative size of different sectors. There are however occasions when the use of an exploding pie chart can enhance the presentation of the data. For example if you wish to highlight information in one category/wedge in particular, or when additional information is provided about a particular category as is shown in the example below. Where next? This guide has outlined the various ways in which pie charts can be used to present data and has also provided design and presentation advice. Information about other graph and chart types and any specific design issues related to them can be found in the companion study guides: Bar charts and Histograms . The study guide Presenting numerical data provides guidance on when to use graphs to present information and compares the uses of different graph and chart types.
