Change Font Size and format – Html

Based on the code below, how can I change the font size and format?

For the size I tried:

Approach 1 (didn’t work)

.text-large {
  font-size: 150%;
}

Approach 2 (didn’t work either)

html {
    font-size: 16px;
}

Code:

a {
  color: white;
}

.footer-background {
  padding-top: 20px;
  padding-bottom: 20px;
  background-color: #1c2a48;
}

.logo,
.nav {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

.nav-pills {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
}

.nav .external-link {
  padding: 2px;
}

<div class="footer-background container-fluid">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4 center-block">
      <ul class="nav nav-pills">

    I added these two classes to your css, and was able to change the font to Times New Roman, and increase the font-size. Add the class "test" to your li

    <!-- add to your css -->
ul.nav-pills {
 font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;} !important

.test {
 font-size: 24px;}

<!-- add class to yur li -->
<li class="test"><a class="external-link" href="https://www.b.org/opengovernment/prr/Pages/default.aspx">Public Records Request</a></li>

    Bootstrap defaults to 16px = 1rem. Given that information I added your two container classes to the CSS and made everything 2rem with that specificity.

    .footer-background.container-fluid {
  font-size: 2rem;
}

a {
  color: white;
}

.footer-background {
  padding-top: 20px;
  padding-bottom: 20px;
  background-color: #1c2a48;
}

.logo,
.nav {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

.nav-pills {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
}

.nav .external-link {
  padding: 2px;
}
