From New York, Sydney, to Bucharest protestors wear the mask of Guy Fawkes as they stand outside their national financial centers protesting greed, corruption, and an increasing lack of accountability within financial and political sectors.

Warwickshire-born Catholic Robert Catesby and his friends planned to kill the King, his ministers and scores of nobles by blowing up the Palace of Westminster during the State Opening of Parliament on November 5, The plotters rented a house nearby and managed to smuggle 36 barrels of gunpowder - around 2.

The explosives were discovered with hours to spare after an anonymous tip-off warning one peer to stay away. To this day the cellars under the Houses of Parliament are ceremonially searched before the annual State Opening.

Far from being the plot's ringleader Guy "Guido" Fawkes was merely the trigger man drafted in to set the fuse. Born in York he converted to Catholicism following the death of his father and left to become Mercenary fighting for the Spanish against the Protestant Dutch. Given his expertise in explosives he was charged with setting and lighting the fuse to the gunpowder. He was caught red-handed by the King's men beneath the palace and was tortured for two days at the Tower of London until he gave up his co-conspirators.
