because it is conjugated to fit in the center of the sentence not to end the sentence because as you can tell it wasn’t over yet
But then again I’m big dumb so lemme know
The て form here indicates that the first clause contributes something to the meaning of the sentence as a whole and isn’t just an isolated statement.
If we used natural English, your sentence would be like saying “It’s a beautiful country with many beaches.” Instead of “There are lots of beaches. Also, the country is beautiful.”
It could be ある or あります but then it would be two separate sentences. ビーチがたくさんあります。きれいなくにですね。 “There are a lot of beaches. It’s a beautiful country.”
People just don’t tend to speak in such short, simple sentences. て form is just used to join two clauses together into one sentence. ビーチがたくさんあって、きれいなくにですね “It’s a beautiful country with a lot of beaches”
If you just googled the uses of the て-form (which you were able to identify) you would find your answer plain as day…
It’s a connective form
