There is nicotine in cigarettes, which is addictive and dependent.

From 19 17 to 19 18, the sales volume of cigarettes increased sharply again due to frequent wars. There are a lot of nicotine and other substances in cigarettes, which can paralyze people's nerves to a certain extent, make people less painful, and also make people addicted to cigarettes, so cigarettes sold well at that time.

Cigarettes are made by drying tobacco, shredding, and then growing into barrel-shaped strips with a diameter of 120 mm on paper rolls. When smoking, one end is lit, and then the smoke generated by incomplete combustion is inhaled at the other end.
