King James I introduced harsh laws against Catholics in England over 400 years ago. Guy Fawkes and other Catholics who opposed the king plotted to blow up the Houses of Parliament with barrels of gunpowder when the king was there. On November 5th, Guy Fawkes was found guarding the gunpowder and was arrested. To celebrate his survival, King James established an annual tradition of lighting bonfires and fireworks on November 5th, now known as Bonfire Night. Today on Bonfire Night, people in England burn effigies of Guy Fawkes, light bonfires, set off fireworks, and eat traditional foods like potatoes and parkin cake.

The Glorious Revolution are the events between (1688-1689) that led to the replacement, in 1689, of James II by his daughter Mary II and her husband William of Orange (who became William III) as joint monarchs.
The Revolution has at least from two different points of view: The first one showed that William wanted to rescue Britain from Catholicism under the absolutist-style regime of James II.
The second one showed the ascension of William of Orange to the British Throne as an invasion motivated by real political and a personal lust for powers. On the one hand, James' rule of the British Isles was so cruel, so heavy-handed, so obviously an effort to restore the papacy to England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland that his own people rose against him. By delegations from the nobility, William was invited to become the king. On the other hand, the only way in which William could become king of England was through invasion. On 19 October, William went on board, and the Dutch fleet.
Admiral Herbert led the van, and Vice-Admiral Evert Zen brought up the rear. The prince placed himself in the centre, carrying an English flag, emblazoned with his arms, surrounded with the legend, "For the Protestant Religion and Liberties of England." After landing successfully and without opposition; William marched on London and forced James to flee to France.
The throne was declared vacant by abdication, and William was pronounced king of all Britain on February 1689.
The Glorious Revolution created a workable form of government in Britain where the people could get things done through them. They did not have to have violent revolutions (as the people in France did). It also created a balance of power between the monarch and the Parliament.

planned to put barrels of gunpowder in one of
these cellars, ready to blow up the king.

blow up Parliament, the King found out
what had been planned, and on the

they found Guy Fawkes,
ready and waiting to light
the gunpowder.

the Tower of London, where they kept
him prisoner.
