You should try to read them. You will find Abu Mukhnaf’s accounts are mostly preserved in Tabari’s Tarikh.
Question about schism will need a lot more political analysis of that time and beyond. Basically there was a constant minority group that believed that all forms of authority, including temporal, is the right of Imam Ali and his children since they are the lineage of the Prophet (saww). Other groups slightly changed between eras in conjunction with the political environment of the time.

So which city had the Shias in most number? what was the role of the people of Madina and Mecca during the event of Karbala?
