Hey guys I am German and I could give some support. Only the French had during the time of the Revolution a different calendar. So did the Russian.
German month names are quite easy and nearly the same as in English. Because of the umlauts the abbreviations have been internationalized. March would be März and the abbr. would be Mär but because other countries don't have umlauts the Mrz is used.
