They are pretty much the same thing. The US and most countries in Latin America are Federal Countries and use the word "Congress", because it means "a meeting of representatives for different countries" (supporting the idea of Federalism). Other countries such as in Europe and the former British Empire use the term Parliament, which basically means "place of discussion".
