Would think USA. Britain always was concerned with their empire.
We normally have stepped in to fight aggression without being as
concerned about keeping or getting some territory.

Problem with the "territories" logic is that after WW2 it became about resources. Spreading democracy is a good excuse to have reliable access to middle eastern oil.

Hasn't worked out so well considered there still only one democracy in the middle east. I guess you could count Turkey, but no much oil there I don't believe.
