How to Create a Database in MySQL?

In this sql tutorial I'll walk you through how to create a database in MySQL server. The answer to this question might seem straightforward, but that's only at first glance.
The most basic sql query helping you create a sql database looks like so:

CREATE DATABASE demo; where "demo" is your database name.

Don't forget that when running any sql query your user must have the proper privileges to do so. Grant them by running a sql query like so:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'user'@'localhost' where 'user' is your user.
Don't forget to issue a SQL query like the following too:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

However, don't forget that sql databases need to have collations and character sets too. You can set them like so:

CREATE DATABASE [IF NOT EXISTS] database_name
[CHARACTER SET charset_title]
[COLLATE collation_title] where:

1) "database_name" is the name of your database;
2) "charset_title" is the title of your chosen character set;
3) "collation_title" is the title of your chosen collation.

Some of the most popular charset-collation combinations for mysql server are as follows:

1) utf8mb4 and utf8mb4_unicode_ci for general use cases involving sql queries, general mysql installation, etc.
2) big5 and big5_chinese_ci for support for Chinese characters.
3) latin1 and latin1_swedish_ci for support for Northern European (Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish) characters.

These charset-collation combinations can be very useful if you're creating a sql tutorial for beginners, or if you're crafting a sql course too.
