No. Many countries have tornadoes. The U.S. just gets more than other places.
About 75% of recorded tornadoes strike the United States. This is misleading however, as many countries do not keep records of their tornadoes. The actual number of tornadoes outside the U.S. is not known.
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.
Tornadoes have been reported in all 50 US states, although some states have fewer tornadoes than others. Hawaii typically experiences the fewest tornadoes, with Alaska also having a lower incidence compared to the rest of the country.
Tornadoes are relatively rare in China, with an average of about 20 tornadoes reported each year. The tornadoes in China typically occur in the spring and summer months in regions such as the eastern and central parts of the country.
The U.S. gets 75% of all recorded tornadoes. This is misleading however as many countries do not keep records of their tornadoes and the actual percentage of tornadoes for the U.S. is probably much smaller.
No, tornadoes have been reported on every continent of the world except Antarctica. But the central U.S. has more tornadoes than any other country. See the link below for further information.
Yes. The U.S. averages about 1200 tornadoes per year, more than any other country in the world.

No. Tornadoes can occur almost anywhere that gets thunderstorms.
Yes. The United States gets more tornadoes than any other country.
Yes. The United States gets more tornadoes than any other country.
All US states have had tornadoes. Antarctica gets snow and no tornadoes, but it is a continent, not a state.
The U.S. certainly records more tornadoes than any other place in the world and is also more prone to strong tornadoes. However, many countries do not keep records of the tornadoes that they get and so the majority of the world's tornadoes go undocumented. But until more complete documentation can be established the U.S. will hold its status as the most tornado prone country.
No, tornadoes have been recorded on every continent except Antarctica. But usually, the US is the most common place for tornadoes, especially in Tornado Alley.
