Read the release notes and docs for each. Basically Apache 2 introduces an mpm architecture which allows you to plug in different protocol handlers that make use of different processing models for handling requests. Most notably all the mpms except for the pre-fork mpm are threaded, but since FreeBSD's kernel threading support is broken anyway, you can't use those and you can only use the prefork mpm on your server. The prefork mpm makes Apache 2 look exactly like Apache 1 so in your case there is no difference except Apache 1 is a more mature and less buggy codebase.
