Union is 15 players a side and league is 13 players.

Union has more kicking and scrums, league is much more about running with the 'ball'.

league is what I played and watch then. same rules as international, correct?
Rugby league rules stay the same at all levels, as far as I know.

Rugby union is the older form of the game and still gets far more media attention in the UK than league.

The Six Nations, which is what I'm watching, is union.
