Why do quotation boxes split themselves?

This snag doesn't happen on Stack Exchange. Each time I use >, the quotation box severs itself. How can I combine the quotation boxes? I screenshot https://math.codidact.com/posts/282889.

You can try as Moshi said. Even, you can try following line either.

> paragraph <br/> Hello

It works like this.

paragraph
Hello

This snag doesn't happen on Stack Exchange.

No! It also happens in SE.

If you only want to use HTML than, you can use following code.

<blockquote>
<p>first paragraph</p>
<p>second paragraph</p>
</blockquote>

Here how it looks like.

first paragraph

second paragraph

There is no need to resort to HTML. (And even less so XHTML; <br/> is XHTML, while HTML uses just <br>. Codidact serves pages with a <!DOCTYPE html> doctype and no XML declaration, so is HTML, specifically HTML 5; compare the doctype for HTML 4.01.) Markdown supports embedding a single newline: just put two space at the end of the line, just before the newline.
