Asoka, whom the world history holds in high esteem has many firsts to his credit. Many of today's reforms owe their origin to this great emperor.

This is very good information. so far, I consider Abraham Lincoln as the first to abolish slavery. It is pleasant to know that Ashoka did so long ago. He advocated gender equality. But why did he not remove Sati system or did this not exist in his regime?
can you tell me sir, when was Sati started in India?
Does it exist in our epics?

History has to say this. Or it may be that Sati was not as rampant as it was in the later years. Anyhow, this is purely my opinion.
