Div side by side issue

I have an issue with my CSS - I am have two divs - "section1" and "section2". I want them to be displayed side by side but they are being displayed as seen in the picture. Does anyone know how to display them side by side?

issue 

  <div id="section1">
   <h1><London></h1>
    <p>London is the capital city of England. It is the most populous city in the United Kingdom,
with a metropolitan area of over 13 million inhabitants</p>
  </div>

  <div id="section2">
  <h2><London></h2>
  <p1>London is the capital city of England. It is the most populous city in the United Kingdom,
with a metropolitan area of over 13 million inhabitants</p>
 </div>

</div>

#section1
{
float:center;
padding:5px;
background-color:lime; 
margin-left:20px;
width:300px; 
}

#section2
{
float:right;
background-color:lime;

You can also add clear:both; or clear:none; to your css. This allows relative objects to park side by side, or be forced below an existing object. This command works best on crowded pages.

Your float property should be left not center and right and hopefully that moves them side by side.
