ATC is in english in the US, and nobody seems to request accomodations
for non-english speaking pilots (hell i think the FAR stipulates that
the pilot must speak english).

Yes, English is _mandatory_ for pilots in the U.S.

But if i'm flying into Germany, for example, would I be speaking
to their ATC in german or english?

Your choice. Their ATC is supposed to be bilingual.

What about Mexico?

See above.

What if i'm a mexican pilot would it be english or
spanish?

In a Spanish-speaking country, you'd have the choice of English or Spanish.
In any other country, you'd be required to speak English.
