No. The reality is that 75% of Earth's recorded tornadoes occur in the United States. The United States is one of few countries to actively monitor and survey tornadoes within its borders, so most tornadoes that strike the U.S. are recorded. In most other countries the majority of tornadoes likely never get recorded, resulting in highly inaccurate statistics.
No. The movement of Earth's plates can cause earthquakes and tsunamis but is completely unrelated tornadoes. Tornadoes are produced by severe thunderstorms.

You can see systems such as mid latitude cyclones, fronts, and tropical cyclones as well as thunderstorms, though they are not considered their own weather systems. You cannot see tornadoes from space. Tornadoes descend from thunderstorms, which block the view from above. Also, tornadoes, like thunderstorms, are not weather systems, but simply weather events

Relatively little is known on how Neptune's atmosphere might operate on the scale that tornadoes do. However, the dynamics of Neptune's atmosphere are rather different from those on Earth, with large storms developing from anticyclones rather than cyclones and the lack of a solid surface. Tornadoes as we know them likely do not occur there, but we cannot rule out somewhat similar intense vortices.
There are rotating cyclones and anticyclones on Jupiter, but they are a bit different from any storm found on Earth.

Not likely, because astronauts haven't seen any tornadoes on Jupiter. There have been massive storms (hurricanes and tropical cyclones). One of them is the Great Red Spot which is a humongous hurricane bigger then Earth. It has been running on Jupiter for more then 400 years.

All of the above except tornadoes can be considered cyclones. A cyclone is a large scale low pressure system with a defined rotation. Tropical cyclones, which care called hurricanes in the Atlantic and typhoons in the western Pacific also occur in the Indian Ocean. In the most extreme cases winds in tropical cyclones can approach 200 mph, making them second only to tornadoes in terms of wind speed.

Tornadoes are unique in that they are the most violent storms on earth, the only one capable of generating winds in excess of 300 mph. In some manner, tornadoes are similar to cyclones, only operating on a much smaller scale. Tornadoes are also known for being fickle. Not only are they highly unpredictable, but they often cause destruction in an erratic fashion; destroying one home while leaving its neighbor standing.
