British definitely.
They ruled over the greatest land mass of any empire in history.
There was a popular phrase at the height of the British Empire
The sun never sets on the British Empire.
They established a code of laws and a legal system, the basis of which is used in much of the world today, made the English language if not the first language, at least the second language, in much of the world, which as well became the language of business in much of the world.
Their influence is lasting and wide spread.
