What was Vader a lord of?
Dark Lord of the Sith was his title given to him since he was a "master" of the dark side of the force.
They did re-enforce the bunker with a whole legion of Stormtroopers, plus they thought they were only going to be dealing with a group of saboteurs, not a bunch of hairy mokney things with super powerful stones throwing muscles. The Empire knew the Ewoks were there, but they wrote them off just as you would write off a couple mice in your garage. Plus, the DS II was so busy dealing with the large amount of attacks, they hardly had the time to send down any bombing runs, I also don't think the communication between the DS II and the Endor Bunker was all that great.

How could Tarkin have destroyed Alderaan?
Tarkin was actually a Grand Moff over the Moffs of many sectors. He held a higher power than any regional governor could imagine. I would imagine that Moff tarkin also held some extra power aside from that of a Grand Moff since he was the Chief Officer of the Death Star.
I would imagine that Han and Lando could be given Field Officer Commissions much like the United States Military can during times of war.

Why didn't the Imperial garrison reinforce the bunker on Endor?

Who reigns over the Alderaanian people?
There is not much around anywhere to explain in detail of this. what I do know is that after Alderaan was destroyed, there was a planet in the Outer Rim called New Alderaan which was colonized by the displaced Alderaanians. It was led by a political group called the "Alderaan Alliance" which continued to represent the Alderaanians in the Senate after the New Republic was established. Again, I can't remember anything being said of the monarchy, so I guess it just died with Bail Organa.
Echo Base was the rebellions headquarters. It is where many Rebel leaders met and discussed tactics. Basically imagine it being like the only talked about, but never seen War Room of the United States, which supposedly sits under the White House. Luke Skywalker recommended the location of the icy planet of Hoth to the Rebel leaders because it was so remote, had little resources the Empire would want, and was simply a difficult planet for the Empire to search. Remember how Echo Base was almost quickly dismissed by Imperial officers before Vader walked up and declared it to be the base. If Vader had never seen the image, maybe the Battle of Hoth would never have taken place.
