lokk in the tutorial shipped with postgres:

Inheritance

Let's create two classes. The capitals class contains state capitals which
are also cities. Naturally, the capitals class should inherit from cities.

CREATE TABLE cities (
    name            text,
    population      float,
    altitude        int     -- (in ft)
);

CREATE TABLE capitals (
    state           char(2)
) INHERITS (cities);
