Dear student,
$$\begin{gathered} The empire was vast , so different parts were ruled differently. \\ Area around Pataliputra was under control of emperor and officials \\ were appointed to collect taxex from farmers , herders , crafts person and traders, \\ who lived in villages and towns in the area. \\ Officials also punished who disobeyed emperor\text{'}s rules. \\ Spies used to watch the officials work and finally emperor supervised \\ everyone. \\ The other areas was ruled from a capital such as Taxial or Ujjain. \\ The vast areas between the centres , the Mauryans controlled rivers and roads, \\ which were impor\tan t for transport and collect resourceses as tax. \\ Eg: Arthashastra gives information of north-west was impor\tan t for blankets and \\ south India for gold and precious stones. \end{gathered}$$
