The <html> tag tells the browser that it is an HTML document.
In the HTML document, we define the document structure with three kinds of tags: <html>, <head> and <body>. HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language, and declares that the document is an HTML document. All other elements except <!DOCTYPE> are placed in between the <html> tags.
Example Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of the document</title>
</head>
<body>
The content of the document......
</body>
</html>
