Global replication is hard and if they weren't designed with that in mind its probably a whole lot of work.

I thought part of the point of using AWS was that such things were pretty much turnkey?\

Mostly AWS relies on each region being its own isolated copy of each service. It gets tricky when you have globalized services like IAM. AWS tries to keep those to a minimum.
