House of King(Mayura empire)

What happens if Mayura make a house of king in India and create a monarchy democracy in India
reason
1 Every village in India have autonomy in the matter of justice and government
2 Some republic present in India in time of Mayura have a large autonomy and only gave tribute in time of war
3 Mayura king only have their direct government in taxshila and madhgha(Bihar, Kaushal(puravanchal) and Avanti (East utter Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh )where they implement the governor

Sounds more like a Nomadic empire like Mongols and similar ones. They would just nominally to nil rule cities and villages where revenue would be collected from instead of being ruled directly or settled. Wouldn't be stable and would only last till a next nomadic confederation comes in or a settled empire invades. Such an empire would crumble under Greeks or Scythians/Tocharians quite quickly.

Autonomy is part of ruling in India when any king decided to destroy the autonomy of his vassals, village and city they are destroyed.
Name - Aurangjab, Ashoka, Alauddin khilji are some king name who chooses to establish central authority and they weaken their own destiny

My idea is that Mayura established House of the prince(king) as its established as it's was happen in an ancient Vajji republic where villagers vote out their leader in turn all leader meet in Sabha (proto parliament) to rule their Nation. vajji republic(total 6 cities are part of) pay tribute to Mayura but they outlived Mayura by 500 years when white hun annex them .so in India this type of proto parliament can outlive https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vajji

Okay,then what is needed for this challenge would be settlements established by the rulers like did Greece and Rome and then rule over the existing village settlements like you said. That could work out. But the Mauryas were a classical empire. They were universal unlike the later India. You would find settlements of Buddhist/Hindu Greeks,Eastern Iranians,Tocharians,etc,etc too when they join the Empire and live in their colonies loyal to the Mauryan Emperor and you would see many dynasties of these people. The rural settlements can then be ruled by a nomadic way(collecting taxes only). Could work out.
