Google appear to set re-directs on google.com in other countries to their local variant. Recently in Thailand typing google.com sent me to Google thailand. The way I got a script I could understand was to type google.co.uk which does not re-direct
In your case you could do the same thing
Why the default for SA may have been set to Germany I have no Idea. It's either a mistake my them, or more likely something to do with you, for example you may be using a German ISP.
Suggest you ask a few local around you if they have the problem
