Learning a language is not about how long you study but how you study. If you study efficiently you could learn English in three years . English came from britain aka it originated there so most of the English is the same there are only slight differences in words but there aren't that many. Either one would work if you want to learn English :).

British English isn't too different from American English. We just have different grammar and different names for certain things. Certain things that are okay in American English aren't okay in British English.
I'd say to learn American because it's easier (and I'm American), but you should seriously consider it. Who are you more likely to meet? An American or an English person? Which culture do you like better? Where would you like to live?

Also, if you move to America or England, you can expect the language learning process will go much quicker!
