The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- These are the first edicts in the Indian language of Emperor Ashoka, written in the Brahmi script in the 11th year of his reign.
- They follow chronologically the Kandahar Bilingual Rock Inscription, in Greek and in Aramaic, written in the 10th year of his reign, which is the first known inscription of Ashoka.
- There are several slight variations in the content of these edicts, depending on location, but a common designation is usually used, with Minor Rock Edict N°1 and a Minor Rock Edict N°2, which does not appear alone but always in combination with Edict N°1), the different versions being generally aggregated in most translations.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Minor Rock Edicts article was read about 13,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 73: each hit it takes is cut by 29 %.
