Empire of Japan: During World War 2, Japan had a modernized and powerful military, They had aircraft carriers, high performance aircraft, battleships, etc.

British Empire: Has soldiers across the globe. Manufactured high performance aircraft, had battleships, and aircraft carriers.

I am wondering, if the British Empire and the Empire of Japan were to go straight to war during World War 2, who would be victorious? Why?

Please be honest.
Please, can a lot of people answer this question. I appreciate it.
 
That's a tough one. I'd lean towards the British, because they have been waging war for centuries in the same style that they had been using, albiet with different tech.

Japan had discipline, but it didn't have the resources.
 
Japan got their butts kicked because of their backwards society and war tactics in the water and on land. Many Japanese would kill themselves instead of fighting for their lives. The British military was in much better condition overall before WWII than Japan who was occupying China with a peasant army, but Germany knocked the British down a peg and had them on the brink of defeat. Japan was slaughtered by the U.S. in the majority of land and naval battles while the majority of U.S. Forces (the Army) were in Europe. The U.S. nuked Japan twice because the entire Japanese population was brainwashed with propaganda to think we were all murders. The Japanese government told them and even trained them to fight us even though their navy and army were already broken.
