Vertically Align Divs

I am trying to vertically align a div in my code but with no success. This div contains sub divs. The first one

I want this to look like this :

enter image description here

but at the moment it is not aligned. This is my HTML code :

body {
  display: block;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  background: #f1f1f1;
}
.content {
  float: left;
  margin: 20px auto;
  text-align: center;
  width: 300px;
}
.content h1 {
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-weight: 700;
  margin: 0 0 40px 0;
  font-size: 25px;
  line-height: 30px;
}
.circle {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  line-height: 100px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  /* the magic */
  -moz-border-radius: 50%;
  -webkit-border-radius: 50%;
  text-align: center;
  color: white;
  font-size: 16px;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-weight: 700;
  margin: 0 auto 20px;
}
.blue {
  background-color: #052D72;
}
.green {
  background-color: #16a085;
}
.red {
  background-color: #e74c3c;
}
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue">Blue</div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>

So, in the .content I tried adding this :

vertical-align:baseline;

but I saw no difference.

If you want them both vertically and horizontally aligned, I would recommend using flex. This offers more flexibility and is more forward-facing.

Mozilla Docs on Flex

If you use the rules align-items and justify-content, you'll get magic workings. Check out an example: https://jsfiddle.net/vrad7yuj/

.container {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  border: 2px solid #f00;
}
.col {
  border: 2px solid #00f;
  flex: 1;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}
.ball {
  border-radius: 50%;
  border: 1px solid #0f0;
  height: 60px;
  width: 60px;
}
<div class="container">
  <div class="col">
    <div class="ball"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="col">
    <div class="ball"></div>
    <div class="ball"></div>
    <div class="ball"></div>
    <div class="ball"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="col">
    <div class="ball"></div>
    <div class="ball"></div>
  </div>
</div>

Alternative, if you want to do this with a little count of codelines, you can use flexbox:

body {
  display: flex;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  background: #f1f1f1;
}
.content {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  margin: 20px auto;
  text-align: center;
  width: 300px;
}
.content h1 {
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-weight: 700;
  margin: 0 0 40px 0;
  font-size: 25px;
  line-height: 30px;
}
.circle {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  line-height: 100px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  /* the magic */
  -moz-border-radius: 50%;
  -webkit-border-radius: 50%;
  text-align: center;
  color: white;
  font-size: 16px;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-weight: 700;
  margin: 0 auto 20px;
}
.blue {
  background-color: #052D72;
}
.green {
  background-color: #16a085;
}
.red {
  background-color: #e74c3c;
}
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue">Blue</div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>
<div class="content">
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
  <div class="circle blue"></div>
</div>

Take a look on flexbox: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/

Should just be an alternative solution and new knowledge for you. ;-) Cheers.

Add display:inline-block & Remove float for #content

.content {
    display: inline-block;
    margin: 20px auto;
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
    width: 200px;
}

EDIT with class: https://jsfiddle.net/k0fx384a/2/

You have used same #id with multiple elements. That is not allowed in HTML across all browsers(seems like IE and FF allow multiple #ids).

So just change all the occurances of id="content" to class="content" and the CSS should start working.

change <div id="content"> to <div class="content"> so the styles will be applied.
