To change the padding on the left side of an element, we use the padding-left property.

<html>
<head>
<style>

.paddingLeft{
background-color: crimson ;
padding-left: 200px;
}

</style>
</head>
<body>

<p> The terms "left-wing" and "right-wing" were coined during the French Revolution of 1789. When drafting a new constitution:</p>
<p class="paddingLeft">People who were more conservative assembled on the right side of the assembly hall, leading to the term "right-wing".</p>
</body>
</html>]]>

Make sure to pick padding-left.
