There are some link in that page that point to futher info like https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Block-level_elements Anyway, try to think about semantic of tags... In styling context, every content tag can be treated in different way from default (at example you can set <p> be like inline element) BUT one difference keep.. Though bad presented, its alway a paragraph. Why have to take cure of it if , at end, presentation is how we set? Well, i think that an external source explain better than me https://www.lifewire.com/why-use-semantic-html-3468271 than READ IT After readed that, you can understand better why exist div and span.. They are NO semantic elements treated like, by default, block and inline respectively. Thats. This is a more comprensive list of elements with semantic info https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element

Both of these are dhtml( dynamic html) tags. Used to make the content dynamic. With div tag you can make content accessible for every device(like mobile, desktop and iPad) with the help of bootstrap or css.

The <span> tag is an inline container used to mark up a part of a text, or a part of a document. The <span> tag is easily styled by CSS or manipulated with JavaScript using the class or id attribute. The <span> tag is much like the <div> element, but <div> is a block-level element and <span> is an inline element. It has no Default CSS Settings. Example: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>The span element</h1> <p>My mother has <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold">blue</span> eyes and my father has <span style="color:darkolivegreen;font-weight:bold">dark green</span> eyes.</p> </body> </html> On attributes behavior: 1. Global Attributes: The <span> tag also supports the Global Attributes in HTML (https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_standardattributes.asp). 2. Event Attributes: The <span> tag also supports the Event Attributes in HTML(https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_eventattributes.asp).
