So what’s the reasoning behind Jury Trials vs Trials where the judge decides everything? What does a Judge do in Jury trials? Why do some countries not have jury trials and all trials are just with a judge or multiple judges?

No one trusts judges. One way to check the power of judges is to have a jury to decide whether something was a crime or not. Another way is to write the laws so detailed and specific that the codex itself curbes the power of judges.
