Agyia (Qübün: Fágdö Agyöšiy /ɸɑ:ktə acəɕɪj/), named for the ancient Mallányi patriarch Agyöš bör-Aingűd Mallányi, is a concept in Qübüji nationalism inherited from medieval king worship. Agyia is the property of being descended from certain significant Qübüji historical figures, especially various Mallányi kings. Agyöš I and Agyöš III Mallányi are the most commonly deified characters, often associated with bravery or patriotic expansionism. Agyia has often been encouraged by Baigá clergy, and in many Qübu conservative spaces, especially in Ranyaism. Agyia has also been tied to xenophobia and Qübüji autarkic policies.

Agyia is believed to have originated with the psuedo-religious ancestor worship practiced by the Mallányi kings of Qübüj, particularly regarding the tomb of Agyöš bör-Aingűd. Agyöš' grave was granted greater importance due to his role in the Coburii migration to Coburia. His tomb served a significant role in the coronation of the first kings of Qübüj, and is regarded as a holy site by many Baigá.
