The geostationary satellites I’m familiar with fly directly over the Equator, no point on the Equator is in Germany. The disposal orbits are geosynchronous and have a more interesting ground track. I think their ground tracks are still equatorial countries.

Geostationary satellites have antennae which are meant to optimize communications with ground stations in certain countries, but they can’t fly over the USA especially.

Ah you're right, I forgot that geostationary doesn't actually mean sitting right over the country and instead is along the equator.
