-  - When no credentials are explicitly provided the AWS SDK (boto3) that

+  - The AWS SDK (boto3) that Ansible uses may also read defaults for credentials
+    and other settings, such as the region, from its configuration files in the
+    Ansible 'host' context (typically C(~/.aws/credentials)).
     See U(https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/credentials.html)
     for more information.
-  - C(AWS_REGION) or C(EC2_REGION) can be typically be used to specify the
-    AWS region, when required, but this can also be defined in the
