Why is Pentecost Sunday a catholic thing?

The catholics changed the way they calculate the date of Easter/Pascha from the Biblical 14th of Abib to a date that is always on a Sunday. From there, they calculate Pentecost, again so that it is always on a Sunday.
Changing times and laws, that sort of thing...
