Guy Fawkes Night originates from the
Gunpowder Plot of 1605, a failed
conspiracy by a group of provincial
English Catholics to assassinate the
Protestant King James I of England and VI
of Scotland and replace him with a
Catholic head of state. In the immediate
aftermath of the 5 November arrest of
Guy Fawkes, caught guarding a cache
of explosives placed beneath the House
of Lords, Сouncil allowed the public to
celebrate the king's survival with bonfires,
so long as they were "without any danger
or disorder". This made 1605 the first year
the plot's failure was celebrated.
