EMEA is like the big european region with the tourneys that qualify for international events, so its events include the teams from EU,CIS, TR
EU- actual european teams/servers
CIS- (Commonwealth of Independent States) basicly estern europe and part of asia, so russia, armenia, moldova, belarus and all the Stans, in valorant it also includes ukraine
TR- Turkey
Maybe also to help understanding where those regions are coming from
