The smallest dinosaur was once Compsognathus, but has been overtaken by newer discoveries, Micropachycephalosaurus is among the smallest of the dinosaurs now, despite having the longest name. Wannanosaurus could also be one of the smallest.

Currently the smallest known non-avian dinosaur was a small feathered carnivore called Anchiornis. If you include birds, which are now classified as dinosaurs, the smallest would be the bee hummingbird.

The smallest known dinosaur is the bee hummingbird, which lived around 30-40 million years ago. It was about the size of a bee and weighed less than an ounce.

Actually, The world is really only about six thousand years old, not millions and billions. So the Dinosaurs only lived to be about four thousand years old max.
