What is the main difference between the Background section and the Literature

Review section of a dissertation? I have googled this so many times and found very vague answers.

I know exactly what a Literature Review is, but I need to know what makes the Background chapter different. Do I refer to the same type of research, does it need to be different/broader research or just theories etc...? I know i'm not evaluating just setting the scene, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Really confused!

Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help me :)
P.S. please don't bother commenting if you're going to be sarcastic/rude or give me a pointless answer.

Thanks!
