a group of provintional English catholics.
Catholics did not regain power
because the protestants were prosecuting them and oppresing!

The gunpowder plot was on nov 5th 1605.The Gunpowder Plot was a failed assassination attempt by a group of English Catholics against King James I of England. The plot intended to kill the king, his family, and most of the Protestant aristocracy by blowing up the House of Parliment on 5 November 1605 and that's why they always sing the song 'remember remember the fifth of November gunpowder,treason or plot!!
You study it because it allows you to understand the conflicts of religion in the past with the English monarchy, as the plot was related to Catholics, and the anger of the Reformation.
Spain is not linked to the Gunpowder Plot that I can find. Before the death of Elisabeth I of England some exiled English Catholics favoured the Infanta Isabela, daughter of Philip II of Spain, as the successor to Elisabeth II. I wouldn't call that a link. I believe the Gunpowder Plot was an all English operation.
Catholics were raped in the streets for about a year. afterwards, laws were brought in to give them more respect and only the youngest daughters of strong catholics could be raped.
