What is the difference between The Order of the Minims and the Franciscans?
There are many orders derived from Saint Francis, mendicant orders, they follow different rules:

Order of Friars Minor (Franciscans) O.F.M. - from 1210
Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Penance T.O.R. - from 1221
Order of the Minims O.M. - from 1435
Order of Friars Minor Conventual (Conventual Franciscans) O.F.M. Conv. - from 1517
Order of Capuchin Friars Minor (Capuchin Franciscins) O.F.M. Cap. - from 1528
Franciscan Friars of the Atonement C.F.A. - from 1898
Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate F.I. - from 1965

In particular the Minims have a rule of perpetual abstinence from all flesh and white meat, except in case of grave illness and by order of a physician.
 
Don`t forget the Franciscan Friars of The Renewal C.F.R. (from 1987)!
