Aladdin from Walt Disney DOES take place in Arabia, indeed. Which does explains "Arabian Nights" in the opening theme. Disney's Aladdin is set in a kingdom named Agrabah in an Arabian Desert. Princess Jasmine is one of the Disney Princesses, her nationality is Moroccan.

Aladdin is a Middle-Eastern tale, the story is set in China, and Aladdin is explicitly Chinese. However, the "China" of the story is an Islamic country, where most people are Muslims; there is a Jewish merchant who buys Aladdin's wares (and incidentally cheats him), but there is no mention of Buddhists or Confucians.

In the Aladdin animated series that takes place after Return of Jafar Aladdin meets a young Hercules and the two share an adventure so the original movie takes place before the events in Hercules. According the Hercules' credit card the year is 1000 BC, therefore Aladdin must take place several years before this.
