Chronological arrangement from earlier to most recent.
(A) Maurya Empire Founded
(B) Birth of Gautam Buddha
(C) Invasion by Alexander
(D) Gupta Empire Founded
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
Gautam Buddha was born around 563 BCE, far earlier than the others. Alexander invaded India in 326 BCE, the Maurya Empire was founded around 322 BCE, and the Gupta Empire around 320 CE, the latest of the four. Only option 4 places Buddha first and the Guptas last.
Note: Alexander's invasion (326 BCE) actually precedes the founding of the Maurya Empire (322 BCE); no option reflects that, so we chose the sequence closest to the intended order. This is an error by NTA, please don't come at us for this, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
