Anyi people
The Anyi are an Akan people living mainly in south-eastern Côte d'Ivoire and neighbouring western Ghana. Moving westwards from the Akan heartland in the 17th and 18th centuries, they founded kingdoms such as Sanwi, Indénié and Moronou in the forest and lagoon country. Their language is closely related to Baoulé.
