I think you need to look at the code a bit more carefully.

        unsigned int region_id, id;

Also the output is %d, so the maximum length of each output
int is 10 with a possible leading minus sign.

3 + 10 + 1 + 10 + 1.  So 25 not 21 which is too small.

The %d uses could be changed to %u to make it 23.
But really it hardly matters as 30 is sufficent and the
function call depth here isn't particularly high.
