Data Modeling of Geographic Table

[Anonymous]

I am trying to relate two tables in power bi that contain geographic information and keep getting a many-to-many relationship. Is there a way to bypass this? The two table samples are included; 

State	Region	City	Concerts
Delaware	Region 2	Dover	20
New York	Region 1	Manhattan	43
Texas	Region 4	Dallas	68
Texas	Region 4	Houston	98

Table 2

State	Region	City	Protests
Alaska	Region 5	Dillingham	34
Alabama	Region 2	Mobile	72
Illinois	Region 3	Chicago	87
New York	Region 1	Bronx	56
Texas	Region 4	Dallas	59

Can you share your data or PBIX after removing sensitive information?

That will be useful to help on this further. if not see which are the duplicate keys in both tables and try to work on making them unique as well.

Unfortunately, I can't. I was however able to solve this by creating a bridge table that had just city and state information with no duplicates.

Hello @Anonymous 

You can try concating state, region, city in both tables and see if you get a distinct values similar to row count in any one of the table.

That should do the trick. Let me know if this helps!

Thank you for your response. When I do that, I still get a many-to-many relationship.
