CSS is an acronym for Cascading Style Sheets. A style sheet is simply a text file that controls and manipulates the presentation of your content (which in many cases will be marked up in HTML format).

Using HTML attributes, you would probably have to change 500 files; using one style sheet, you only need to change one file (i.e. the CSS file).
