The event that had historical implications contributing to the storming of the Bastille is **2. The Tennis Court Oath because they were arrested for their demands.**
The Tennis Court Oath, taken on June 20, 1789, was a pivotal event in the early stages of the French Revolution. The Third Estate vowed not to disband until a constitution was established, and when they were locked out of a meeting of the Estates-General, it fueled revolutionary sentiments against the monarchy. This growing unrest contributed significantly to the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, which was a symbolic act against royal authority.
The other options are not accurate in this historical context. The rise of Napoleon and the Reign of Terror occurred after the storming of the Bastille, and Louis XVI did not attempt to hide in the Bastille; rather, he attempted to flee Paris in 1791.
