what’s the difference between all the different types of cigarettes

Question

I just recently started working at a gas station and it got me wondering if there’s any difference between marbro red, menthol and what’s the difference between Kings and 100s is it just the length and if so why would anyone buy Kings when they just get less cigarette for the same price

Used to work in a convenience store

Regular king and 100’s refer to length/size
Menthol has a slight mint flavour I believe. I’m a non smoker.
Regular, light, extra light, all refer to the amount of nicotine. Of course they banned that here in Canada 10-15 years ago so they aren’t called light anymore. It’s stuff smooth or mellow. It’s been a long time since I’ve worked there.
