Does anyone know where I can find a map of the kingdoms and republics of India before Chandragupta united Northern India? I'd like to make the territories for my map campaign as accurate as possible but I'm having a hard time finding anything.

Nanda Dynasty (after Greek rule), not very detailed...

Sorry the one map is so big. That's the best I could come up with.

Perfect! Much closer to what I was looking for than the wikipedia map I found a few second ago. Thanks!

No problem, it just took some careful wordplay on Google Image Search.

Note that this map shows Alexander's organization, which broke down rather quickly after his death. Chandragupta faced other Indian kings and tribes, not the remnants of the Macedonian conquest. You would be better off using a map of the Indian kingdoms which you can find in most decent biographies of Alexander and the description of his Indian campaign to set up your campaign.
