Is ending words with 'ised' versus 'ized' just a UK vs US thing?

The z comes from the Latin izo ending, and is therefore sort of more correct in many words. That doesn't make America all correct, of course, as they tend to use the z on some where it hasn't the Latin roots to validate it, as opposed to the Brits who do the converse. I don't care, myself.
