They went with something that makes it reliant on something similar to what the Jewish calendar is based on, but because they want to make sure it is understood Christians are not Jews, they made it independent of the Jewish calendar, even though we know the events took place during Passover.

And apparently this has been a thing since 325 AD.

Interestingly, to me, my grandmother was born on Palm Sunday in 1913...the earliest Palm Sunday and Easter for the entire 20th century.

It happened again in 2008 (she passed away in 2000).

The earliest it could be, obviously, is March 22...which has not happened since 1818.  And won't happen again until 2285!
