CREATE DATABASE Options

When creating databases, you can specify a template database and set different character sets and collations for each database.

This section describes how to use the CREATE DATABASE command to configure the template database, character set, LC_COLLATE, and LC_CTYPE. For details about other parameters, see the official documentation. 
CREATE DATABASE name

       [ TEMPLATE [=] template ]           
       [ ENCODING [=] encoding ]           
       [ LC_COLLATE [=] lc_collate ]
