"Probably no other natural crop has had the global impact of coffee. Its presence has become daily entwined with human lives almost everywhere since its rapid spread from Ethiopia. Its effects on those who drank it must be weighed against its sociological and environmental ramifications....Coffee has helped spark revolutions, caused cartels to rise and fall, and rewarded entire nations with fleeting financial successes which ended abruptly in economic despair." (HISTORY MAGAZINE) This article traces the history and spread of coffee consumption from Abyssinian folklore to modern times.
