Depends on if you understand Dharma as “religion” or “ethics” and which society you’re talking about.
I personally do not think that ethics is inseparable from religion.
In the Western countries religion is declining but ethical awareness is rising. So the “Social Justice” movement is growing exponentially (and over compensating I would say in its fanatical extremism) - but the nature of life is to swing to extremes before settling in the middle. (We just need to be vigilant with over-correction which can also degenerate into dystopia!)
So modern societies are more just, more free, more humane, more equitable, more kind, more compassionate, more altruistic than ever before. The environmental movement is growing by the day more and more people are becoming vegans - when Macdonalds starts offering vegi-burgers you know change is in the winds!!
Hundreds of thousands of ordinary people are striving every day for the common good (which is what Dharma is all about).
I see about me mostly goodness, kindness, generosity and compassion. So Dharma is alive and well and doing just fine.

Although the Greek city states all spoke the same language and worshipped the same gods, each polis had their own government systems and values. Athens and Sparta, in particular had opposing values; Athens had a democracy, Sparta had a monarchy, where Athenians prized new ideas, the Spartans stubbornly clung on to the traditional etc. Partially due to Pericles taking advantage of the Delian League to benefit Athens, other city states began to resent Athens and eventually the Greek city states sided with either Sparta or Athens in the Peloponnesian War.

A homeland for the Jewish people is an idea rooted in Jewish culture and religion. In the early 19th century, the Napoleonic Wars led to the idea of Jewish emancipation.[1] This unleashed a number of religious and secular cultural streams and political philosophies among the Jews in Europe, covering everything from Marxism to Chassidism. Among these movements was Zionism as promoted by Theodore Herzl.[2] In the late 19th century, Herzl set out his vision of a Jewish state and homeland for the Jewish people in his book Der Judenstaat. Herzl was later hailed by the Zionist political parties as the founding father of the State of Israel.[3][4][5]
In the Balfour Declaration of 1917, the United Kingdom became the first world power to endorse the establishment in Palestine of a "national home for the Jewish people." The British government confirmed this commitment by accepting the British Mandate for Palestine in 1922 (along with their colonial control of the Pirate Coast, Southern Coast of Persia, Iraq and from 1922 a separate area called Transjordan, all of the Middle-Eastern territory except the French territory). The European powers mandated the creation of a Jewish homeland at the San Remo conference of 19–26 April 1920.[6] In 1948, the State of Israel was established.
