The options that are given for this Bing homepage quiz are listed below:

A: Germany
B: Italy
C: Portugal

The correct answer is Germany.

See The Reason for That answer below:

There is some folklore and legend surrounding the Easter hare, but it is not accurate to say that the hare historically played the role of judge in the same way that Santa Claus does. The tradition of the Easter hare, or Osterhase, originated in Germany and spread to other parts of Europe and eventually to North America.

According to the folklore, the Easter hare would lay colorful eggs and hide them for children to find on Easter morning. However, there is no historical evidence to support the idea that the Easter hare had the power to judge children’s behavior or decide if they had been good or bad.

In fact, the idea of using figures such as Santa Claus or the Easter bunny as a way to monitor children’s behavior and reward good behavior is a more recent development, largely popularized in the 20th century by commercial interests such as advertising and the media.

So while the Easter hare does have a role in Easter folklore and traditions, it is not accurate to say that it historically played the role of judge like Santa Claus.
