I am not making any edit in the previous answer, made by some valuable contributor of this great board! I want to add something to this answer.

There might be so many divisions of prose in literature; however, the question limits the answer to only two divisions. The upper answer is so correct and satisfactory in telling there are two divisions: fiction and non fiction. Fiction is a style of writing prose in longer of shorter length; longer is a novel, shorter may be a story; fiction is based with imagination of the writer, the characters, the setting, the actions, and everything of the piece of literature is (in rare there are real places) imagination in gross!

Non fiction does not mean, however, describing real characters and places; it might be well a biography or an autobiography! Non fiction serves as a style of writing to expose the ideas, views, vision, thinking, opinion etc of the author.
