Solution

The correct option is C 65 BC, 29 BC, 1718 AD, 2018 AD
BC means Before Christ. Hence, 65 BC means 65 years before Christ was born,
AD means Anno Domini, and follows the normal chronological order.
So, 65 BC is the farthest past, followed by 29BC.
This is followed by AD years in chronologival order, 1718AD and the most recent being 2018 AD
So, the correct arrangement of writing dates from past to recent is
65 BC, 29 BC, 1718 AD, 2018 AD
