By adding {{Clear}} you force the next bit of code that uses

tags down below. For example:

Here we have the Corporal page without using the Clear code. Notice how the two tables that use DIV codes mesh with each other creating a jumbled mess:

Without Clear

Template:Rank InfoboxCorporal is the fourth enlisted rank in the UNSC Marine Corps as well, ranking immediately above Lance Corporal and immediately below Sergeant. Corporal is the lowest grade of Non-commissioned officer in the UNSC Marine Corps, though promotion to Corporal traditionally confers a large jump in authority and responsibility compared to promotion from Private through Lance Corporal. Template:Mranks

With the Clear Code

Now notice that with the CLEAR code the second DIV table is pushed down below the first DIV table. Template:Rank InfoboxCorporal is the fourth enlisted rank in the UNSC Marine Corps as well, ranking immediately above Lance Corporal and immediately below Sergeant. Corporal is the lowest grade of Non-commissioned officer in the UNSC Marine Corps, though promotion to Corporal traditionally confers a large jump in authority and responsibility compared to promotion from Private through Lance Corporal.
