What is the use of 'global' named table its doesn't extends any table, any use of 'global' table

Global table is never used to hold data, and it is never inherited by any other table. There is no single root table for the whole system.

On the Other hand, Global table is used to provide global access to configurations [ like Business Rules, Clint scripts and any other entities that can be configured on a table]. For example, If you have a function in Global Business Rule, that function can be accessed from any server side entity[as it is available globally], another example is Global ACL's, ACL that are defined on one of global , global.* and * will be applied to every table in service now.

To know your Global entities, navigate to global.list and click configure All in the context menu to see what all are defined on that table.

Hope it clears your confusion.
