Luger and P38 Ejection

Maybe this is a dumb question, but I recently noticed that both Lugers and P38's eject to the left. Conversly, just about every other pistol I've seen, albiet they are American designs, eject to the right.

Was there any specifacation when the Luger or P38 were designed that called from them to eject to the left? Or was it just a random thing that could go either way when they designed them?

Thanks,

Jason
