The Valar and Maiar are both Ainur (angels more or less). They both sprung from the thought of Iluvatar at the beginning.
Basically as Elven-Maiden said, the Maiar are lesser Ainur and they are the servants of the Valar.
Melian (wife of Thingol) and Olorin (Gandalf) were both Maia.
Saruman and Radagast were also Maia, but I can't remember what their real names were off the top of my head.
Those are the only ones I can remember right at the moment.
Hope this helps. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
