Capitalize "West" when it is part of a proper noun, such as in "West Coast" or "West Virginia." It should also be capitalized when referring to regions or territories like the "American West." Otherwise, keep it lowercase when simply indicating direction (e.g., go west).

Because the word 'western' is a place. For example Western Australia. It is talking about the place west of australia.
