What is the difference between Categories and Tags?

Both categories and tags group similar Posts. The difference between categories and tags is that categories are hierarchical (e.g. parent/child) whereas tags have no hierarchy attached. Every WordPress post must be assigned at least one category whereas no tags need be assigned.
