King James I wanted the Gunpowder Plot to be remembered annually as a way to commemorate the failed assassination attempt on him and Parliament by a group of Catholic conspirators in 1605. By establishing November 5 as a day of Thanksgiving, he aimed to reinforce Protestant unity and loyalty to the crown while promoting anti-Catholic sentiment. This annual observance served to remind the public of the perceived threat posed by Catholicism and to strengthen the monarchy's position. Ultimately, it was a means of consolidating political and religious power in a tumultuous time.
