Honestly I try to consider sunni and shiite are same type of muslim. i am technically sunni though. Basically in history one group (Sunnis) wanted the caliphs (Mohammeds friends and religios scholars) to become the new leaders but the other group (shiiites) wanted Mohammed's nephew to become the new leader. There are many other differences as well but this difference started it all.
