Initially, PostgreSQL databases are empty and contain no data (except metadata).

There is certainly no table like "city" or "superhero".

Before you can query these tables, you have to create them and fill them with data.

If you follow a tutorial, that tutorial should tell you how to get these data and
how to load them into your database.

Yours,
