Dude story to break it to you but pretty much all of Age of Empires III civilizations are set after the 16th century, now as of why the Mauryan empire or the earlier ancient Hindu empires were not mentioned is because this is not Age of Empires II. Age of Empires III is set to play around the colonial times, thats why you literally build a colony and defeat others similar to how the European nations colonized the Americas and Asia and the rest of the world. If the hindu empires were to play, then India wouldn't have acess to any gun powder units or artillery. The reason the Mughals were picked is because they brought India its greatest extent in modern times and were reigning close in the time when the Portugese, Dutch, and British settled in India. So it only makes sense to pick the Mughals.
