Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'throughout' = 'for the whole duration' and 'history' = 'past events', so a learner who knows both words can infer 'during the entire course of the past'. This is a common, cross-linguistic, and non-idiomatic combination, making it readily understandable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Throughout history paints a picture: imagine a long thread running through every page of a history book, where throughout is the thread and history is the book. So it means 'at all times in the past'.
