Chocolate derives its name from the Mayan word "xocoatl". The Mayans first cultivated cacao for processing into what we now know as chocolate - around 600 A.D., somewhere in the Yucatan peninsula (in the southeastern portion of what is now Mexico).
the earliest documented use of chocolate was around 1100 B.C. Back then chocolate was usually served as a drink, though

chocolate was invented about 3100 years ago
Chocolate comes from a country in Africa

At first it was very not sweet, and mostly very un delicious

however, the Europeans put some milk and some other things in them which makes them sweeter and not sour or un sweet
john cadbury invented Cadbury chocolate. The founding of the buisness started in 1831 when john first made cocoa products on a factory scale in an old malthouse in Crooked Lane,Birmingham in England.
Chocolate was never "invented". It comes from a plant (the cocoa bean) that is grown, harvested, and then turned into chocolate.

The Mexicans and the Central Americans found the cocoa beans in some sort of unknown rainforest, so they found a use for the beans. They made a drink, and when the Mexicans started using them for energy drinks, they also used them at war with the Spanish. Then the Spanish found out the ingredients, so they started doing it themselves. Then a revolution started. Then one day, someone came through and froze the drink and sculpted it into a rectangular shape. And it still was chocolate, so he made more. Then, he started a business. And people needed money, so people started working there. And BOOM! That man started a delicious revolution.
