        Args:
            parent (str): Required. The name of the instance that will serve the new database.
                Values are of the form ``projects/<project>/instances/<instance>``.
            create_statement (str): Required. A ``CREATE DATABASE`` statement, which specifies the ID of the
                new database. The database ID must conform to the regular expression
                ``[a-z][a-z0-9_\-]*[a-z0-9]`` and be between 2 and 30 characters in
                length. If the database ID is a reserved word or if it contains a
                hyphen, the database ID must be enclosed in backticks (`````).
            extra_statements (list[str]): An optional list of DDL statements to run inside the newly created
                database. Statements can create tables, indexes, etc. These
                statements execute atomically with the creation of the database:
                if there is an error in any statement, the database is not created.
            retry (Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]):  A retry object used
                to retry requests. If ``None`` is specified, requests will not
                be retried.
            timeout (Optional[float]): The amount of time, in seconds, to wait
                for the request to complete. Note that if ``retry`` is
                specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.

                that is provided to the method.
