<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

</body>
</html>

The <html> element is the root element and it defines the whole HTML document.

It has a start tag <html> and an end tag </html>.

Then, inside the <html> element there is a <body> element:

<body>

<h1> hello world this is heading </h1>
<p> new paragraph</p>
<footer> this is footer </footer>

</body>

The <body> element defines the document's body.

It has a start tag <body> and an end tag </body>.

Then, inside the <body> element there are three other elements: <h1> ,<p> and </footer>:

<h1> hello world this is heading </h1>
<p> new paragraph</p>
