I am pretty sure the rest is self explainatory.

1. that first question I don't know either but I guess it has something to do with blood relations, you know being the Reiss but that will explained better on the way.

2 and 3 again self-explainatory, Alma wanted to be part of Reiss elite and having an affair and child with Rod who understood her as she understood his dilemma would help, but his wife persumably found out his affair with Alma and the illegitimate child which is Historia and Rod order them, as a result had to be on farm in the estate to keep tabs on them, which they didn't want to be but they can't leave the estate so as a result Historia was partly to blame due to the fact of illegitimatcy.

4. Alma was killed because the Reiss secrecy need to be kept well secret, Rod did and probably still anyway, held feelings for Alma, it wasn't Rod wanted to but had to, to make sure the status quo of the Reiss was kept intact, and Historia was originally to be murdered by Kenny but Rod stop him because I guess he cared for her in some way, and because he didn't wanted to see a small girl murdered outright, instead probably killed in the line of duty, proabably a better alternative than to be killed outright but with dignity.

I probably got one of these wrongs, but I'm sure its the correct assumption but don't you read the manga of the Uprising Arc?
