Queen Yĩnyani Mùkyi Knoptaba was born on January 22, 1816, in Denyìr Knoptaba, the capital of the Kingdom of Vircazihm. She was the daughter of King Armìmèhtà XXI and Queen Zïmyanèh. From a young age, Yĩnyani showed an interest in the Shungyist faith and became a Shungyist nun, taking a vow of celibacy.

In 1882, following the death of her brother King Armìmèhtà XXII, Yĩnyani was named the successor to the Vircazihmese throne. She was crowned on February 6, 1883, at the age of 67. During her reign, Queen Yĩnyani was a devout Shungyist and rarely spoke in public. As queen, she continued to follow the principles of Shungyism and focused on improving the welfare of her subjects. She was known for her charitable acts, particularly for orphans and widows. Queen Yĩnyani never married or had children, dedicating her life to the kingdom and her faith.

Queen Yĩnyani was a peaceful ruler and focused on maintaining good relations with neighboring nations. She made diplomatic efforts to strengthen ties with Ordrey and other nearby countries. Her reign was short, lasting only eight years, until her death on February 2, 1890, at the age of 74. She was succeeded by her niece, Queen Fawma I, who continued her aunt's legacy and further strengthened the kingdom's relationship with Ordrey. Queen Yĩnyani's contributions to Vircazihmese society and her dedication to her faith are still remembered and celebrated today.
