In previous lessons , I learn that 'Aus' could also mean 'Out of'. Therefore in this case I used 'Out of the regions' and it said that I am correct. But I believe ' Out of the regions ' and 'From the regions' is different . Can anyone please explain?
out of the regions can mean the same thing as from the regions. Unless the regions are jars...

"From the regions" can mean "not from headquarters, not from capital" "Out of the regions" cab be "not from the regions" or "selected out of (many) regions" To me - totaly different meaning, but I am not English native...
No, because "aus" takes the dative, "die Regionen" would work as the subject, say, but not as the object of the preposition "aus".
Regionen is plural and as aus take detive case it will take plural dative case which is den
It sounds quite straightforward to me, but here's some context.
aus does indeed take the dative, and the fact that it's den Regionen (plural dative) rather than singular (dem) shows that it's regions instead of region
No region is like the concept of per states. It can also be like the east coasts, central, etc. Just a division of a land mass per territory.
I wrote 'outside the regions', which did not get a yes. Below, Christian writes that 'out of' and 'from' are synonymous in German. If so, how do they differ from 'aus'?
Outside and out of have different meanings in English. One is indicating where one is, and another is indicating where one is from.
Well, it's sort of difficult to distinguish them if you don't have a verb or another bit of a sentence hanging around!
Aus does not translate to outside, only out. Aus/out implies a place has been departed. Außerhalb/outside excludes a place. A beer out of Germany means the beer comes from Germany. A beer outside of Germany means the beer's current location is NOT Germany (but doesn't imply anything about where the beer is from).
Can the Region be used for knowledge? Maybe i can know the difference between Bereich, Bezirk with these qeustions

As a native English speaker (if you count New Jersey as roughly English-Speaking), this is at best a fragment that despartely needs some context to arrive at a meaningful... umm, Meaning. I agree that sometimes Out Of can mean From.
The context that leaps to mind is when referring to which airport you are using. As in "I fly in on Tuesday at Gatwick, then I'm out of Heathrow on Friday".
