It wasn't particularly planned that way; it is just the way things worked out. The Greenwich Meridian, zero degrees longitude, was defined by the British because the main observatory being used at the time is located in Greenwich England. The meridian goes straight through the observatory. The US is to the west of that line of longitude and to the east of 180 degrees longitude, otherwise known as the International Date Line.
