You can check which debian architectures[1] are available for a given
release on launchpad, that is authoritative information.

See architecture and build section on the left:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty

The labels in brackets signify if the packages are on primary or ports
mirrors - [<countrycode>.]archive.ubuntu.com /
[<countrycode>.]ports.ubuntu.com respectively.

There are 3 types of ARM related architectures, out of which armhf
(ARMv7) and arm64 (aka AARCH64, ARMv8) are current.

About any type of MIPS (mips, mipsel, mips64...) ports, all I can find
is this porting effort team https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mips
You can try mips/mipsel with Debian OS.

[1] exact required CPU / ISA are encoded in the
compiler/kernel/dpkg/etc. configuration, e.g. "i386" actually defaults
to "686" on ubuntu & etc.
