mysql query is :
SELECT
dim_location.country_name,
COUNT(fact_flight.sk_fact)
FROM
dim_location, dim_date
INNER JOIN fact_flight ON dim_location.sk_location = fact_flight.sk_location
WHERE
fact_flight.date_key = dim_date.date_key
GROUP BY
dim_location.country_name
but it's doesn't work and this is error message
#1054 - Unknown column 'dim_location.sk_location' in 'on clause'

Please re-order the tables in the FROM clause as in the query given below; otherwise, the join condition in the ON clause that is meant to be applied to joining the dim_location
and fact_flight
tables, will be wrongly applied to the dim_date
and fact_flight
tables which would result in the above error:
SELECT
dim_location.country_name,
COUNT(fact_flight.sk_fact)
FROM
dim_date, dim_location
INNER JOIN fact_flight ON dim_location.sk_location = fact_flight.sk_location
WHERE
fact_flight.date_key = dim_date.date_key
GROUP BY
dim_location.country_name
