What is bonfire night celebrating?

On November 5th 1605, Guido (Guy) Fawkes tried, with several other conspirators, to blow up Parliament in London. He had managed to secrete barrels of gunpowder in the cellars of Parliament but was discovered before they could be detonated. He was taken to the Tower of London and tortured until he revealed the names of his fellow conspirators. He was then hanged. This became known as the Gunpowder Plot. On November 5th each year, bonfires are lit throughout the UK and an effigy of Guy Fawkes is burned on the fire and fireworks are set off. This annual event is known as Bonfire night or Guy Fawkes night and is celebrating the fact that the King and Parliament survived the plot, although in reality, most people have forgotten the real reason and (children in particular) just enjoy the festivities. Look up Guy Fawkes on Wikipedia for the full story.
