A metaphor is a comparison between two things. Basically, you use a common trait.
An analogy is also a comparison, but in this case you try to “create a story” to highlight several common traits.
In a broad sense, a metaphor is poetic. An analogy tries to explain something in simpler terms.
For instance, if you say “a country is a family”, that’s a metaphor. But if you say “a country is a family: grandpa is our history, the parents are the working force, and the children is the future”, that’s an analogy, because you try to relate several comparisons about the same thing.
