Guy Fawkes became famous for his involvement in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, which aimed to assassinate King James I and blow up the House of Lords. The plot was intended to end Protestant rule in England and replace it with Catholic leadership. Fawkes was arrested while guarding the explosives, and his capture led to the plot's failure. His legacy is commemorated annually on November 5th in the UK as Guy Fawkes Night, where effigies of him are burned to mark the thwarting of the conspiracy.
