Is there more history in one year vs any other?
Is history a rate of change or notable events? Or is every year equal in the sense of history?

Would you say someone who lived from 1900-1950 had experienced more history than someone who lived from 900-950?

Your boomer dad saw more foundational shifts than the 900 king saw in ten lifetimes.

The 20th century crammed in global wars, nukes, and the internet... The raw, exponential data dump of change.

900 was mostly feudal lords dying of dysentery and praying for a slightly better harvest. The rate of paradigm-shifting events is what matters.

History is everything that has happened. You’re talking about notable events, which people might casually refer to as history.

In terms of intensity, pace, and global significance, the person who lived in 1900-1950 would have experienced more history in the modern sense.
