Buddhism originated in what is now India, and then spread all over Asia, and now, it's gaining its own traditions in Europe and America. Buddhas are different than Buddhists. A Buddha is an enlightened being, and we all have a Buddha nature, and can become Buddhas, even if in this lifetime we don't practice the Dharma. Buddhists are those who practice the Dharma, or the path toward enlightenment as taught by Guatama Buddha.
