Origins of Mahayana and Theravada Buddhism
BackAs for Mogallana MahaArahat (Buddha's second Chief Deciple), He went to broadcast Dhamma as well. He went to this country called originally as "Kataksela Nokor". This country, when MahaArahat Mogallana went to broadcast Dhamma, He was not as successful as MahaArahat Ananda and Laughing Buddha. That is why Shakyamuni Gautoma Buddhism is mainly seen in Asia, where most Buddhists are seen.
As for Ordainations, originally they follow Dhamma according to Buddha's dispensation. Later on there are Ordaination Dhamma called "Mahem-nikai or Thorma-yut (Mahayana or Theravada Buddhism)". These were not created by Buddha Himself at all, but Buddha allowed that to exist, and so we have branches of Buddhism called Mahayana and Theravada Buddhisms.

The fundamental difference between Mahayaana or Therawaada is that Mahayana philosophy believes in future Buddhas known as Bodhisatvas. Both branches exist side by side in harmony without any conflict and that is the core factor in Buddhist philosophy. Live and let live. May all beings be well and happy.
