Yes, Subversion is initially easier to learn and use than git. It's not easier to set up as it's client-server while git is fully local. Also Subversion is an incongruous mess.

It seems that you are comparing apples to oranges. Building your own SVN server from the ground up can indeed require some effort. Doing the same for Git demands more or less the same level of effort on your part. So, I believe you are comparing building an SVN server from the ground up to something like installing Gitea or GitLab, or using Git locally.
Again, you don’t have to install an SVN server. Just run `svnadmin create REPONAME` and use the `svn` client to import your data into the repository.

What database? Subversion doesn't need any special database to work. Just the repository and its working copy. Both can be local and can be created with two commands.
