HTML & CSS How to position footer out of nav

I have created a basic encyclopedia page for a project. I wanted to code this page with correct formatting and then base all of my other entries off of it. I am having trouble, however, getting my footer out of the left nav bar. I want the footer to be on the bottom after everything else.

Also, I would like the image to be to the right of the paragraph text. I cannot figure out how to get the image to wrap the paragraph within the <article>.

Here's the HTML code

HTML: 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>TITLE | Encyclopedia</title>
        <link rel="StyleSheet" href="style_basic_page.css">
        <link rel="icon" type="/x-icon" href="/EncOzk.jpg">
    </head>
    <header>
        <center><a href="/index_en.html" class="homepage_link"><h1>ENCYCLOPEDIA</h1></a></center>
    </header>
      <nav>
          <br><a href="index_en.html">Home</a><br>
          <br><a>Culture and the Arts</a><br>
          <br><a>Geography and Places</a><br>
          <br><a>History and Events</a><br>
          <br><a>People and Groups</a><br>
          <br><a>Religion and Beliefs</a><br>
          <br><a>Technology and Architecture</a>
      </nav>
    <body>
      <article>
            <p class="title">TITLE</p>
            <div>
                <img src="TitlePage.PNG"; width= 300px; float= right;>
                <p>PARAGRAPH TEXT</p>
            </div>
      </article>
    </body>
    <footer>
      <p>FOOTER TEXT</p>
    </footer>
</html>

and my CSS styling

CSS: 
h1, h2 {
    text-align: center;
    display: inline;
}
.title {
    font-size: 30px;
    border-width: thin;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: solid;
    border-left-style: none;
}
header {
    border-width: medium;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: double;
    border-left-style: none;
}
.homepage_link {
    color: black;
    text-decoration: none;
}
nav {
    float: left;
    width: 20%;
    border-width: thin;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: solid;
    border-bottom-style: none;
    border-left-style: none;
}
article {
  float: right;
  width: 79%;
}
br {
  display: block;
  margin-bottom: 9px;
  font-size:2px;
  line-height: 2px;
}

Hiya, The issue you had here was the footer had no real width so it was sliding in where it could fit :D I have now given it a 100% width and floated:left and it sits where it should, i have also fixed your body tags :D

CSS: 
h1, h2 {
    text-align: center;
    display: inline;
}
.title {

    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: solid;
    border-left-style: none;
}
header {
    border-width: medium;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: double;
    border-left-style: none;
}
.homepage_link {
    color: black;
    text-decoration: none;
}
nav {
    float: left;
    width: 20%;
    border-width: thin;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: solid;
    border-bottom-style: none;
    border-left-style: none;
}
