In 1605, Guy Fawkes led a conspiracy in England to blow up King James I and the Houses of Parliament to avenge the persecution of Catholics in England. They had secretly hid twenty barrels of gunpowder in a cellar under Parliament. The gunpowder was discovered on November 4th and the conspirators were arrested, tried and put to death - including Guy Fawkes.

Guy Fawkes Day is a day for thanksgiving and celebration of the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot, preventing the assassination of the King of England. Guy Fawkes Day is celebrated November 5th each year.
