context_page_description: Under federal law the manufacture, importation, distribution, and advertisement of tobacco is regulated whilst the 16 federal states of Germany each have their own legislation regarding smoking in public places, which range from relatively weak regulations to full smoking bans in all licensed premises, childcare facilities, schools and governmental institutions. As of July 2016, nearly 40% of the German population live in a state which bans smoking in all restaurants, pubs, cafés and nightclubs. The other 13 states permit smoking in designated rooms or in bars with a floor area of less than 75 square meters.
  According to a 2013 micro-census survey, 24.5% of the German population aged fifteen years and over are smokers. Among the 18–25 age group, 35.2% are smokers.
