This is a product of incentives encouraged by the system (i.e. a federal republic), it has nothing to do with languages.

It has much to do with culture though - which is transmitted via language.

I think it's more like culture carries language with it. Along with other things, but language is one of the more recognizable ones.

Seems like it’s under-studied (due to anglophone bias in the English language political science world probably) - but comparative political science is a discipline, and this paper suggests it’s a matter of single-member districts rather than the nature of the constitutional arrangement: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0010414090022004004

(I would just emphasize, before anyone complains, that the Federal Republic of Germany is very much a federal republic.)
