Aladdin is a fictional character from the story Aladdin and the Magic Lamp, which is part of the book of 1001 nights. In the book, he is a street-smart young thief in the mythical city of Agrabah. He meets and falls in love with the Sultan's daughter, Jasmine, an independent soul who, much like Aladdin, wants to escape from her circumstances. Jafar, the Sultan's evil vizier, deceives Aladdin into helping him retrieve a magic lamp, which ends up in the possession of Aladdin and his monkey friend, Abu. The lamp's occupant is a lunatic, shape-shifting genie, who promises his master three wishes, and though he cannot make Jasmine fall in love with Aladdin - he can certainly make things easier for him. Posing as the rich and handsome Prince Ali, Aladdin completely fails to impress the Princess, and discovers that it was his true self she was interested in all along. Using his own cunning and courage, Aladdin defeats Jafar and his evil schemes, earning princely tide-and the hand of the Princess.
