The ARIA spec states, "Authors must give each element with role region a brief label that describes the purpose of the content in the region." https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/master/aria/aria.html#region

The Core AAM states, "Special case: if the region does not have an accessible name, do not expose the element as a landmark. Use the native host language role of the element instead." https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/master/core-aam/core-aam.html#role-map-region
