Interest groups are different from political parties in the sense that they are the ones paying the political parties to help them represent certain views or get certain bills passed in their favor.

I believe that political parties and special interest groups formed mainly to group like-ideas together and give a voice to lesser known platforms.
Many interest groups and political parties form as a branch or a previous organisation, but members mainly join for a purpose or goal, a common belief, for solidarity and positive incentives.
Interest groups focus on a specific policy where as political parties have a wider spectrum on their political agenda.

1st Political parties are normally much bigger with exception to the AARP. 2nd the main function of a political party is to win election so they can control the government, interest groups do not offer candidates themselves. Interest groups aim to influence the officials who are elected. 3rd interest groups are usually narrower in their focus than political parties. Finally, many interest groups are extremely ideological whereas the two parties are not.
The Roman Republic political parties were more like mafia families. There were a many parties as there were political leaders. The numbers were constantly changing as supporters switched sides frequently. For all practical purposes, an accurate count would be impossible.

Interest groups and political parties are similar in that they both seek to influence government decisions and policies. However, interest groups tend to focus on specific policy issues and cater to a narrower range of interests, while political parties have a broader ideological platform and compete to govern and hold political power. Interest groups also tend to advocate for specific causes, while political parties aim to win elections and govern.
