Need to recover browser history from a specific date before I removed Mozilla Firefox and changed IP addresses
I recently removed Mozilla Firefox from my computer and changed IP addresses. How can I recover browser history from a date before these changes occurred? Also note that am not an administrator on my computer (it is a work computer) and can not install any applications to support this request. Any guidance would be much appreciated!

So that is where it is. Can copy the files out and delete the folder.
You do not say if running Firefox on something else so info is there.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
If you removed the Firefox profile folder where Firefox stores your personal data as well when you removed Firefox then that older history is lost. Otherwise Firefox would have found your previously used profile and reuse it.
You would need a backup to recover older history.
