Since you are a German citizen, living in Germany, I think that you would be filing there and going by German law.

It doesn't matter....a person is entitled to file for/obtain a divorce in the country in which they reside....no matter where they were married.

I don't know of any country that doesn't automatically recognize a marriage from another country, unless that marriage would be illegal in that country (ie second and third wives that are legal spouses in islamic countries but wouldn't be legal spouses in other countries.
