The Abbassid Caliphate was the only Caliphate that existed for all of those years and the only Caliphate for which those years serve as book-ends.

However, there are several Caliphates that existed within that time frame such as the Umayyads, Idrissids, Almoravids, Alomohads, Merinids, Sa'adians, Aghlabids, Tulunids, Fatimids, Ayyubids, Samanids, Hamdanids, Buyids, and Sarmanids. (There may be a few more as well).
