he wanted freedom
The king at the time was James I (James VI of Scotland).
i dont know sorry
The King and Parliament in particular were making it clear to non-conforming Catholics that a return of the Roman Catholic Church to England as the state religion was never going to be a possibility. The plot to kill James was as much about him as it was about Parliament which if it had blown up would have killed the kings relatives, the Privy Counsel, the Protestant Aristocracy, all the Bishops of the Church of England and judges of the legal system. In total the whole of the Protestant State. The plotters intended to install the Kings daughter as a puppet Queen and return the Church to Rome.

* Because the King found out about it * King James I caught Guy Fawkes in the act * The gun powder had gone off and so it couldn't be lit and therefore the houses of parliament wouldn't be able to be blown up

To kill King James, in order to prevent the publishing of the 1611 King James bible.
King James I and all the members of Parliament, as well as the King's nine-year-old daughter, Elizabeth.
He wanted to kill King James I, a much hated king.
The Catholic men of the gunpowder plot planned to blow up Parliament. After they had blown it up they planned to make King James I daughter queen as she was Catholic. They wanted to do this because they thought that England should be Catholic instead of Protestant. Hope this helped! :)
James VI of Scotland became James 1 of England
King James II, who was a Catholic. Parliament divided into the Whigs (who wanted a different the King) and the Tories (who opposed changing it). These later became two separate political parties: the Liberals and the Conservatives.
