Solution

The correct option is C India

Alexander conquered most parts of the Western World, but there is a great deal of controversy over his invasion of India. In BC 327 Alexander came to India, and tried to cross the Jhelum river for the invasion, but was then confronted by King Porus. According to Indian history he was stopped by Porus at his entry into the country, but most of the world still believes that Alexander won the battle.
