How can stroke cause right-sided hemiplegia?

can anyone please explain how stroke can cause right sided hemiplegia? in simple terms please. is it just random that suddenly the blockage occurs on the right side of the spinal cord thus causing right-sided hemiplegia?

A stroke is an interruption of the blood supply to any part of the brain. A stroke is sometimes called a "brain attack." A stroke can happen when the following occurs:
* A blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain is blocked by a blood clot. This is called an ischemic stroke.
* A blood vessel breaks open, causing blood to leak into the brain. This is called a hemorrhagic stroke.
In most cases, the symptoms affect only one side of the body (unilateral). The defect in the brain is usually on the opposite side of the body (depending on which part of the brain is affected).
