- Tobacco, also called danbagu, first emerged in China during the twilight years of the Ming Dynasty. Although its consumption was initially banned in the early Kangxi reign, it still gained widespread popularity. By now, it has turned into a near-ubiquitous commodity. People of all genders and statuses consume it nealy as if it were a staple food.
