Correct answer: "declined in India but remained strong in other areas of Asia."
Brief explanation: After 100 BCE Buddhism gradually lost support and patronage in India (revival of Brahmanical/Hindu traditions, changing political support, later Muslim invasions), while it had already spread widely along trade routes and became influential in Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, China, Korea, Japan and Tibet.
