Just generate a translation db and you are set. Just for the beginning I urge you to store ALL dates as numbers since epoch= .. So you will work with numbers instead of dates, like this you can just go and show your dates in every country if they use month/day/year or day/month/year or whatever. Also calculations are much easier with numbers then with dates. When storing dates as numbers you can do all kind of stuff and if/then/else or use showif/hideif to get results as above.
