If you imagine a classic shopping-cart system, you might have a 'Country' lookup table that limits the possible choices of countries that you will ship to. A 'Country' lookup table would have a primary key of CountryId (or often, CountryCode - the two or three digit standard code for the country). This table's Primary Key would then be used 'zero or many times' in a table such as CustomerAddress, or similar. I hope that makes sense!
