@Tastyfrzz The North European tribes used to celebrate the arrival of Spring... a time of renewal and fertility. The festival was named after the goddess of fertility... Esther (The word oestrogen comes from that).
Early christians corrupted that festival into a symbol of renewal centred on their own cult leader, but the symbols of fertility (rabbits, eggs, etc.) have remained.
The pushing of chocolate and gaudy decorations are simply artefacts of clever marketing over the last century.

@newjaninev2 imagine how short people were back then. A chocolate rabbit the size of our hand would be a giant chocolate rabbit to them xD
