I don't believe they've ever had that kind of freedom with any other character since every other character has followed the rough outline of their original tale.

But even though Agrabah has been introduced, I'd love to have Aladdin and Jasmine be Asian and from Mulan's Empire. It'd be a great nod to the original tale, which takes place in China. Aside from that, they could probably tie into Mulan's story somehow. Aladdin as the Emperor? I hope not! Which part do you disagree with? Aladdin and Jasmine being Asian, being linked to Mulan or Aladdin being royalty, which is what he becomes in both the tale and the movie? He could still have the rags-to-riches background. It'll be better to have Aladdin and Jasmine to be the rulers of Mulan's empire because at least we might see Mulan's story, since I doubt we'll get Agrabah again.
