Maven is a build tool based on Java. The files with which you declare the build behaviors are XML.
Build tool means that Maven can manage your dependencies to e.g external libs for you to have them only in the place you actually need them.
Without a build tool, all external jars have to be added to the build path, which is hard to maintain.
Also, Maven (and other build tools) can run all tests after build automatically.
Additionally it makes it easier to deploy the application for different platforms what is quite handy.
