This project resides in GovCloud, which is just `us-gov-west-1` right now, I believe.


Looks like I am incorrect, us-gov-east exists as well. My project only has access to west right now. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-govcloud-us-east-now-op...

GovCloud East is also up, but the GovCloud West region's 3 AZs plus GovCloud East aren't all of US (or even “US government on public cloud”) compute (AWS also has Secret Region, Azure has two government non-secret regions and two secret regions; GCP doesn't have a government region but federal government agencies use regular commercial GCP regions—that’s true of AWS and Azure, too, the government offerings are approved for high-impact use whereas the general offerings have a lower-impact approval; Google is seeking to also get the High impact approval for their commercial offering, rather than having a distinct region IIRC.)
