Afanyu /æ'fænuː/ was a civilization established in the second half of the second revolution and located between Makam and Loodon rivers.

Afanyu was expected to dominate the region, but instead the country got engulfed in a non-stop fight for power between its many kingdoms which lasted for two and a half centuries. At one point Afanyu was comprised of over 50 separate kingdoms.

By the beginning of the 20th CSR Afanyu stabilized somewhat and was divided into Upper and Lower Kingdoms. Upper Kingdom was invaded by Potus Aylis in the 1960s and lost after 6 years of war. The Lower Kingdom stood idly by, refusing to help. As soon as loodonian forces became victorious, the Lower Kingdom attacked Potus, hoping that his forces were unprepared after being battered by the six-year war, but were decisively defeated and submitted to Loodon.

Afanyu's influence on the history of the region, thus, turned out to be very limited, but it became famous for its floating stones, known as afanyu stones.
