The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 involved a group of English Catholics who sought to assassinate King James I and blow up the House of Lords to protest against Protestant rule. The key conspirators included Robert Catesby, the leader, as well as Guy Fawkes, Thomas Wintour, John Wright, Robert Wintour, and several others. They aimed to ignite a rebellion and restore Catholic monarchy. Ultimately, their plot was foiled, leading to severe repercussions for the conspirators.
