Aladdin Central Messageboard

I'm just curious...if Agrabah was actually real, where would the city be located? I'm guessing somewhere in Persia, since there is a slight Indian influence in a general Arab landscape.

Your thoughts?

I'm still sticking with my answer of that Turkey/Syria/Iran area.

[Street Nomad]

Hmm...I wonder why no one has mentioned Maghreb North Africa yet. Marrakech could be another possibility. The city is located in a relatively dry area, with sand-colored buildings and streets. They even had Viziers back in medieval times (although they called their leaders Caliph instead of Sultan).

I may be feeling a bit ambitious, but I might even add Mauretania to the list.

I think because the series hints at people coming from the Northern regions of Africa to be "far away" kingdoms, but I don't know what "far away" is to them when they have a ye old airplane

[Street Nomad]

Oh ok. I really haven't finished the series yet, so I wouldn't know.

Do you think, then, Quirkistan would be located in Sudan?

It's possible, especially given they're part of the seven deserts.

[Street Nomad]

Can you explain to me what the Seven Deserts are?

I've heard Agrabah would be located in Iraq, Iran/Persia, Saudi Arabia or Morocco.

Are there any Mongol tribal kingdoms in Aladdin tv series?

Not...that I remember? The closest we've come to that area is the far east on a trade route stop.

[Street Nomad]

Thanks for answering my question.

I just haven't been watching much of the episodes lately. That's it! I'm watching Plunder the Sea!

I haven't seen them in a while myself. I keep hoping they'll put them on DVD, but that doesn't seem to be in the plans for Disney

[Street Nomad]

I thought they put some episodes in DVD already?

On those princess DVDs there's a few episodes, but the entire series? No.
