political parties
Political parties are similar to the federal in various ways. The most common similarity is in the operations and administrative issues. The political party leader is runs the party as a federal government is run by the President.
Interest groups, like political parties, are centered on individuals with similar interests. Political parties, however, have much more public influence and are not necessarily about sharing interests as they are promoting those who share certain interests.
Political parties can provide organized platforms for people with similar political beliefs to work together to achieve common goals. They help simplify complex issues by presenting voters with clear choices and options. Parties also promote accountability and transparency by providing a structure for candidates to be held responsible for their actions and policies.

Interest groups, like political parties, are centered on individuals with similar interests. Political parties, however, have much more public influence and are not necessarily about sharing interests as they are promoting those who share certain interests.
They only area they are similar is that both are concerned with getting their issues passed or in front of the public.
Frankly, because it is human nature for us to band together into like-minded groups. We seem to seek out similar individuals (however one wishes to define "similar") to bond and group with. Politics is no different than any other area in this respect. In retrospect, any period of ANY government form without some type of political parties should be considered an anomaly. Even in governments with only one political party (or systems which claim not to have any parties), a closer inspection will reveal groups which operate in a manner similar (or even indistinguishable) from a formal political party.
