Conditional branching is where you branch based on a condition. Quickest examples would be Jump if EQual (jeq) and Jump if Not Equal (jne). You give it two registers and a jump location and it jumps based on the condition of (in)equality.

Unconditional is just a straight out Jump (jmp). It just takes a destination.
