I wonder how they are coming up with the region names? Most are cities (Sao Paolo, Frankfurt), some are countries (Ireland), some regions (N. Virginia, Oregon).

This new region is unique in that is does not refer to an actual place, and that the name alone is not descriptive (in the AWS console, it says just "Central" in the header).
- discodave 10y agoMaybe it's just in case Quebec secedes. ;) In all seriousness I can see AWS eventually having to put multiple regions in some countries because the x province doesn't trust the y province.
