A typical web page has headers, footers, navigation, central area and side bars. Now if we want to represent the same in HTML 4 with proper names to the HTML section we would probably use a DIV tag.
But in HTML 5 they have made it more clear by creating element names for those sections which makes your HTML more readable.

HTML4 vs HTML5

Below are more details of the HTML 5 elements which form the page structure.

: Represents header data of HTML.
: Footer section of the page.
: Navigation elements in the page.
: Self-contained content.
: Used inside article to define sections or group content in to sections.
: Represent side bar contents of a page.
