Please advise which should be correct as an appropriate choice. If both of them are applicable, then what is the different between them? Thanks.

They are both possible. I find 1) more natural. It's "what is the difference", not "different".
“Every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud, adopts as a last resource pride in the nation to which he belongs; he is ready and happy to defend all its faults and follies tooth and nail, thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.”
— Arthur Schopenhauer
