Whose emissary was Magasthanese?

Correct option is D

Megasthenes was an ancient Greek ambassador sent by Seleucus I Nicator, one of the generals of Alexander the Great, to the court of Chandragupta Maurya, the founder of the Maurya Empire in India. Megasthenes is famous for his work, Indica, in which he described the society, culture, and governance of ancient India. His detailed account provided valuable insights into the Mauryan administration and life in India during the 3rd century BCE.
Megasthenes' observations were influential in shaping Greek perceptions of India. He is particularly noted for describing Chandragupta Maurya and his court, as well as the structure of Indian cities and the royal administration.
Information Booster:
• Indica, Megasthenes' account, was one of the earliest foreign accounts of India. It offered a window into ancient Indian society and governance.
• Seleucus I Nicator was a Macedonian general and ruler who established the Seleucid Empire, which extended from the eastern Mediterranean to parts of Central Asia.
Additional Information:
Alexander: While Alexander the Great conquered large parts of India, he was not associated with Megasthenes in terms of emissary work. Megasthenes came after Alexander’s time under Seleucus.
Bindusara: Bindusara, the son of Chandragupta Maurya, did not have Megasthenes as an emissary. Megasthenes served under Seleucus, not Bindusara.
