Surprisingly enough, most of the Iraq War occurred within the borders of Iraq, a country in the Middle East.
More specifically, though, the initial fighting to topple Saddam Hussein was primarily concentrated in the southeast of the country in the Shatt Al-Arab and the Shiite Holy Region (Karbala, An-Najaf, and the nearby regions), terminating with the entry to Baghdad. The majority of the fighting against the militant factions (Mujahidin, Fedayeen, Sadr's Militia et al.) occurred in what is colloquially called the "Sunni Triangle" which had vertices at the cities of Baghdad, Fallujah, and Ba'aquba. There was scattered fighting outside of this area in the southern area of the Kurdish Region in Northern Iraq and in the Western Anbar Province.
The first one was fought from 1990 to 1991 in Kuwait and Iraq. The second one has been fought since 2003 in Iraq.

Iraq as an independent nation (since 1923) has never successfully taken over Iran. Iraq's incursions into Iranian territory during the first part of the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1982) occupied less than 5% of Iranian territory. However, there have been empires based in Iraq that have conquered Iran such as the Abbassid Caliphate and Ilkhanate in the 800s-1300s.
The Gulf War took place in 1991, not 1989, and it was sparked by the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq.
