The group that plotted to blow up the British Parliament is famously known as the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Led by Guy Fawkes and a group of Catholic conspirators, their goal was to assassinate King James I and restore a Catholic monarchy. The plot was foiled when authorities received a tip-off, leading to the arrest of Fawkes and his co-conspirators. This event is commemorated in the UK on November 5th each year as Guy Fawkes Night.
