I'm exploring the unknown lands... the desert from this realm to Agrabah.

”

—Prince Eric to Ariel ^src

Agrabah is a Fairy Tale Land realm featured on ABC's Once Upon a Time in Wonderland and Once Upon a Time. It first appears in the second episode of the spin-off series.

Agrabah is based on the location of the same name from the Disney film, Aladdin.

History

Before First Curse

Agrabah has several provinces, with only two of them with known rulers. In one province, a Sultan rules a kingdom, with his son Mirza as his heir. The Sultan's illegitimate son with a commoner, Jafar, attempts to be officially recognized by his father, only to be employed in the palace as a serving boy. One day, the Sultan holds an audience with some visiting officials, during which Mirza is humiliated after Jafar demonstrates more knowledge than him about a regulation policy. The Sultan later drowns Jafar and has his body disposed on the city outskirts, but unknown to him, Jafar is revived by some kind of magic. ("Bad Blood," "Street Rats")

In a part of Agrabah, a sorceress named Amara becomes greatly feared by people who meet her, and Jafar eventually becomes her apprentice in order to get revenge on the Sultan. Years after accumulating powerful magic, Jafar storms his way into the palace, where he kills Mirza and imprisons the Sultan after his father continues to refuse to recognize him as his son. It is not known, after the Sultan's imprisonment, who became the next ruler in the kingdom. ("The Serpent", "Bad Blood")

At the capital of Agrabah, another Sultan rules this province, with his only daughter Princess Jasmine. Jafar becomes the Sultan's adviser and incapacitates the man by placing him under a spell. When the sorcerer begins delivering harsh punishments to people for minor crimes, Jasmine decides to seek help from Aladdin in order to free her father and restore order to the people. Aladdin succeeds by becoming the Savior and breaking Jafar's hold on the Sultan before driving him from the capital. After Aladdin leaves to pursue Jafar at the eastern provinces, Jasmine stays behind to work on improving the kingdom. Later on, Agrabah comes under siege from a great threat, but Jasmine is unable to find Aladdin to help her. She goes to a neighboring kingdom for aid, but on her journey back to Agrabah, she is caught in a sandstorm and finds Agrabah is completely gone. ("Street Rats", "Dark Waters")
