The CREATE statement builds an empty table to hold rows. In this example the column yr is the PRIMARY KEY:

CREATE TABLE games
(yr   INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
,city VARCHAR(20)
);
INSERT INTO games(yr,city) VALUES (2004,'Athens');
INSERT INTO games(yr,city) VALUES (2008,'Beijing');
INSERT INTO games(yr,city) VALUES (2012,'London');
SELECT * FROM games;
