Create the HTML element that will serve as the document root. Too vague of a question.

Hi Bridget,

In this case, I think the question can sound vague because an "HTML element" could mean a lot of things. However, in this case, the question is asking specifically for an html element. You might be looking for the following:

<html>
</html>

I hope this helps. Keep up the good work!
