With a pod after 1 January 1945, have Hitler die on his birthday on 20 April.

Pod is that after Hitler learns of the Seelowe Heights' defences being pierced on 19 April 1945, he orders a counterattack from Steiner which doesn't happen and loses his nerve and gets his last will ready. The next day (on 20 April 1945), he orders a last marriage and birthday lunch with Eva Braun, throws a fit with his generals at the failure of Steiner, announces his last will, eats a last dinner and fatally shoots himself and his wife (Eva Braun).

Any good figures for the leader of Leninist/Stalinist type ideology originating in early 20th France?
 
we assume that somehow the idea of zionism still exist but never really cathes on and the turn of history still stay the same. Post holocaust, would the idea of israel in palestine become popular ? or would it be considered unrealistic ?
 
Why are Nagaland and Mizoram more developed than the Indian average? Even Meghalaya isn't as poor as it could be. They had no urban civilization or literacy prior to the British, have a mountainous geography, are difficult to access, and have had tensions with the government and with each other. They should be the poorest in India, judging by geography and history.

They're also some of the least populous states with the highest literacy rates. These states also are not Hindu; they were ripe for conversion to Christianity and the schools that came with missionary activity. Thus, the populations are agrarian or live in relatively small cities and family/clan ties remain strong.

What if the 1912 plan for a Macedonian state came to fruition?
So, this is at the expense of Serbia mainly? I'm not sure of the intended boundaries, but as Skopje etc is South of Nish, then I assume we are looking at a bad result for the Serbs. This might imply they have a bad outcome in the WAR too, as I assume this did not come about because the Serbs were diplomatically too strong. Serbia is going to be squeezed and will focus either West towards the sea (Montenegro tried to take Scutari, maybe Serbia tries that in the second war) or towards the North, i.e. Bosnia
