The time displayed in bottom bar is server time. If your customers are in Iraq and you want displaye tehir local time, you should set timezone to Asia/Baghdad.

Where do you make this change at?  I am in USA central time zone, would the timezone be America/Chicago?

You can change the timezone in the config.php file.
