It was a simple way of smoking. You didn't have to carry around a bulky pipe. The same tobacco, the papers were easier to carry than leaves to roll the tobacco in. The cigarette was a way to make a 'small' cigar without the size usually needed when using a tobacco leaf. And they were not likely to get broken like a larger cigar.

Tobacco is a plant. It was not invented, it was discovered. Native Americans found that smoking the dried leaves was a pleasant thing to do, and cultivated the plant for that purpose. European explorers took notice of that, and carried samples of it back to Europe, where it became wildly popular.

Because the people who did probably didn't know what they were doing and created something that felt good and weren't aware that it was dangerous (at least at first).
