Winter is is named that probably to keep with her family's snow/ice based theme. Though they could be from Atlas because the company is based there.

My other thoughts are that Ozpin's quote to march an army across the continent could also be an exageration to prove a point. Also the show does state that there are four kingdoms, but it does somewhat allude to other states in the world. The four kingdoms could simply be superpowers becasue of different reasons (Atlas with its tech, Vacuo due to their hardiness, ect.) or they are the main governing bodies. Smaller governmens or autnomous states could exist but are not mentioned. The faunus fought a war in Menagerie which on the map appears far from any of the four kingdoms implying that there is or was a faunus governed state there of some sort. Is it fully independant, does it identify with one of the four main kingdoms, or is it under occupation I cant tell. More might be revealed as the show progresses
