Answer:

Ashoka's

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashoka saw the battlefield filled with blood. He was immersed in grief seeing the horrifying state of Kalinga all over. This is said to have prompted Ashoka to adopt Buddhism.

After Ashoka's successful but devastating conquest of Kalinga early in his rule, he converted to Buddhism and was inspired by its doctrine of dharma. Thereafter, he ruled his empire through peace and tolerance and focused on public works and building up the empire rather than expanding it.
