Hi! I am Guy.

I lived in England in the 16th and 17th century and I was Catholic in a Protestant country. Me and my friends wanted to blow up the parliament to kill King James I, so we could get a Catholic king again. We met up every Wednesday. My friend's name was Robert. Robert didn't like the king. He often talked about how much he hated him. The parliament was big, but we would blow it up anyways! Or at least...that was the plan...

Text

Back in the 1600’s England was led by the Protestants. Guy Fawkes was part of a group that wanted to have a Catholic rule over England, just like there had been in the past. Guy Fawkes and his group planned on achieving this by blowing up the whole parliament building, along with the king inside! On the 5th of November they leased a room below the House of Lords and filled it with barrels full of gunpowder. Guy Fawkes was in charge of guarding the explosives and fortunately he was found before all the gunpowder went off. Today the people of Britain celebrate this failed attack on the king on the 5th of November each year. They light fireworks and bonfires. Dolls of Guy Fawkes are burned in the bonfires.
