REPLACE

REPLACE(f, s1, s2) returns the string f with all occurances of s1 replaced with s2.

 REPLACE('vessel','e','a') -> 'vassal'

In this example you remove all the 'a's from the name of each country. This happens because the string 'a' is replaced with .

SELECT name,
       REPLACE(name, 'a','')
  FROM bbc
