1) Locality requirements should be fulfilled by attaching or limiting workloads to regions. Not by having the entire infrastructure and everything only ever exist in a single place (which breaks numerous legal requirements by the way).
2) ELB/ALB are not. S3 is not. AMI only exist in a single region. EBS cannot be moved, ever. Billing is not really.
AWS is heavily region centric. For instance, it is impossible to list all instances attached to your account.
In command line tools and the web UI, it asks you a region at startup, and you will only see instances in that region.
