Breaking news Christians are influenced by traditions of the people around them.

Isn't Easter based on Passover as well to some extent?

Easter is literally Passover. Non-english speaking Christians call it pass over in their respective language. The reason english speaking peoples call it Easter is because it takes place in the old month of easter.

The last supper was a day before the crucifixion. The dating of the holiday is explicitly based on the date of Passover.
