Chanakya?(also known as?Kautilya?or?Vishnu Gupta?(c. 370?283 BC) was an Indian teacher, philosopher, and royal adviser. He was initially a professor of economics and political science at the ancient?Takshashila University?in?Takshashila?(in present day?Pakistan). He managed the first?Maurya emperor?Chandragupta's rise to power at a young age. He played an important role in the establishment of the Maurya Empire, which was the first empire in archaeologically recorded history to rule most of the?Indian subcontinent. Chanakya served as the chief advisor to both Chandragupta and his son?Bindusara?(whose son was?Emperor Ashoka.) Chanakya is credited with authoring two treatises said to be the first of its genre in the world ? the?Arthasastra?(Economics), the ancient Indian political treatise; the?Nitishastra, the?Chanakya Niti, a treatise on the ideal way of life and his policies. His works predate?Niccol? Machiavelli's by about 1,800 years. He is compared to?Aristotle, the great Greek philosopher who taught?Alexander?as both had identical views on the republican forms of governance. His works which were lost towards the end of the Gupta dynasty could be discovered only in 1915.
