A region for AWS or GCP (and surely Azure) is more than one physical data center. A given data center (availability zone) can fail with no data loss. You have to choose very specific storage tiers with warnings galore to get to a point where one data center will cause data loss.
There is also multi region buckets which go across regions.
I use RClone and Duplicacy to backup to S3 Glacier and Google Workspace. Kopia is also another up and comer.
For a simple copy type setup RClone is a good one to look at, by default it copies the files and doesn't do any snapshots, packing, splitting, etc.
