1st and foremost they belong to a different group.

The Baoule are Akan and the Bete are Krou , therefore their language is totally different. No similarity at all.
The baoule are matrilineal and the Bete Patrilinear.
For traditional attire the Baoule use Kente as most Akan and the Bete use Tapa or Raffia
Both are egalitarian societies I think however, in baoule societies there are kingdoms.
For most Kru ethnic group there are no kingdom, the go by Chefferie.
