What is the difference between Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese?

Are they the same? If not, what differences are there between Mandarin and Cantonese (both written and spoken)? Thanks for your help in advance!

Cantonese is a dialect. It is used throughout the Guangdong region and Hong Kong. It is very different from Mandarin; a person speaking Mandarin would not understand a word of Cantonese. Also, Cantonese is written in Traditional Chinese characters, whereas Mandarin is written in Simplified characters.
