Funny thing is I guarantee you 99% of the world doesn't even know who Guy Fawkes is or what the Gunpower Plot of 1605 was about.

I think a good deal of those in the Anglosphere at least have some small idea about the Gunpowder Plot.

I heard the Gunpowder Plot of 1605 was really an FBI sting operation.... Fawkes was a patsy.
