so, why doesn't league of legends have their servers like osu!, where you can play from all regions with other places around the world without lag?

The scale is VASTLY different

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding on how the Internet works. You can't just have "no lag" between regions. The continents are separated by space, and information takes time to get from computer to computer. I don't know what feature Osu has, but it's physically impossible to have "no lag" between parts of the world.

because riot doesn't want to put that kind of money into their game, i mean it would be amazing if they did it would fix one of the biggest issue people have with this game. but they just don't care enough to do it,

While I'm unfamiliar with osu, there are fundamental physics reasons why there will always be lag for at least one person if theres someone from japan playing with someone from europe. Not necessarily noticable lag, but information has to get from A to B, and it's going to take some amount of time.
