There was a pro Axis coup in Iraq which was itself overthrown by the British. Iran was partitioned between the allies and the Soviet Union. The outbreak of war mostly stopped Jewish immigration into Palestine. The Mufti of Jerusalem was in Berlin trying to persuade Hitler to genocide the Jews. You seem to have a funny idea of "not effected at all" and "stayed out of".
Nope. There was no fighting outside of Europe.
The Battle of the Nile was 1798 but the Napoleonic War was 1799-1816... weird.
it was only a naval engagement, after all, too.
