elements that points to the same class name:
Example
div.cities {
background-color: black;
color: white;
margin: 20px 0 20px 0;
padding: 20px;
}

Paris

Tokyo

Using The class Attribute on Inline Elements
The HTML class attribute can also be used for inline elements:
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
span.note {
font-size: 120%;
color: red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>My <span class=”note”>Important</span> Heading</h1>
<p>This is some <span class=”note”>important</span> text.</p>
</body>
</html>
