Places with a tropical wet climate are also known as rainforests. These equatorial regions have the most predictable weather on Earth, with warm temperatures and regular rainfall. Annual rainfall exceeds 150 centimeters (59 inches), and the temperature varies more during a day than it does over a year.
Most lakes were formed from Melting glaciers. Because when the glaciers melted they became lakes.
Hope this helps.
With everything else as constant (the planet's gravity, itself), then yes, this is true. But, if the planet's gravity still exists, then the Sun's gravitational force doesn't matter as much because of the astronomical distance between the two bodies.
I know one is France for sure I think the other is Russia
