Edge is Microsoft's new browser that is based on Chromium. It is distinct from Internet Explorer which is effectively deprecated but still used somewhat widely as many legacy enterprise applications still require it.

The recent versions of Edge are based on Chromium, but originally it used Spartan (which was the successor to IE’s Trident)

Internet Explorer is an older browser.

Edge is the Microsoft browser whose newer versions are based on Chromium.
