Bonfire night
Bonfire night is usually celebrated by many in the British culture. It has come from the past history of a small group of Catholics led by Robert Catesby, and his fellow men including the famously known Guy Fawkes and there plan to kill king James 1st and blow up the houses of parliament for there chances to change the law on roman Catholics which they believe would be fair and equal. Yet after Guy Fawkes himself being caught by guards in the houses of parliament cellars, on the day of November 5th, the awaited plan was never to happen. Guy Fawkes was tortured and questioned about the plotters and eventually came clean.
