Solution

The correct option is B 1880 BC , 180 BC , 130 AD , 2012 AD
B.C. refers to Before Christ and the counting is in reverse order, i.e. greater the number older the year.
A.D. refers to Anno Domini and the counting is in straight order, i.e. greater the number newer the year.
Again BC comes before AD
So the sequence is :
1880 BC , 180 BC , 130 AD , 2012 AD
