the ZODB is not a relational database, it is an object database, and as such
there are no SQL commands you can use to create tables, such as "create
table foo".

The ZODB is usualloy accessible through python commands, there is no prompt
for it since it is a component that you use in your python programs.

If you would want to create tables you would have to define a class Table
and create obejcts of that class - most certainly not what you expected.

THere is more information about the ZODB and it's merits here:
