Why the logical volume created earlier allocated to the later part ?

I formatted a disk using LVM and noticed that when creating logical volumes, the one created first is allocated to the later sectors of the disk, while the one created later is allocated to the earlier sectors. Why does this happen? The entire process was done through the command line. Although it doesn't affect the os, I can't accept.

What are the commands you ran ?

The outputs of

$ lsblk -f
# pvscan
# vgscan
# lvscan

would be helpful.

Note : the commands with # before them need to be run as root or with root-rights.
