Why does America use propane and butane, but the UK use methane as household gas?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but in America, they seem to call household gas (for cooking/ central heating etc) LPG, which is liquid petroleum gas… a mixture of propane and butane.

In the UK, we use natural gas instead, which is mainly methane.

Why the difference? Is one more energy efficient than the other? I know that butane is C4H10 as opposed to methane’s CH4, but does that make it a better energy source?

Here in the Philippines LPG is contains 70% butane and 30% propane. How about if butane becomes only 40% and propane only 60% does it not affect the combustion process of a car engine?
