RDS is managed database servers. EC2 is your virtual servers. I really suggest reading and learning a little about AWS before trying to use it.

You will need to take snapshots of your RDS servers and your EC2 EBS volumes. Then you will need to copy those snapshots to the new region. Then you can create new instances in the new region from those snapshots. Finally you can delete the old instances in the old region once you are done with them.

You will also need to create a similar AWS environment in the new region by recreating the same VPC configuration, security groups, database parameter groups, CloudWatch alerts, SNS topics, etc.
