In terms of gameplay, this wouldn't change anything. Nevertheless it might affect how the game looks. For a start, many people place the king and queen with the rule that the queen goes on her own colour. If black is not in the left hand corner at the start of the game, then king and queen would be switched, which could be confusing for people who have played many games with them the proper way around.

What color is the back right corner on a chess board?

When you start a chess game, the bottom right corner SHOULD be a light square. If it is dark, you're actually playing on a checker board, so you'll need to rotate the board 90 degrees. Remember the saying in chess: 'white on right, queen on colour.' A checkerboard is the opposite of a chessboard. The lower right hand square is a dark square.

Why does it matter if your chess board has the black square on the left side of the board?

Because if you play with a white square on the left side, the locations of the white / black bishops on each side will be reversed. Also the King and Queen will be reversed. This will can confuse experienced players who are used to them being where they are. Additionally, if inexperienced players switch back and forth on which orientation they play in, they won't develop the white / black intuition that you get from playing on a consistent board orientation.
