Question

Who decided a melon to be the king and why?

✓

Answer

After the King was hanged the city was without a ruler. The ministers sent out a message that the next person who passed by the City Gate would be the one who would name the next ruler. The guards were told to keep as eye and stop the first person.
It so happened that an idiot was the first to pass the City Gate, he was stopped and asked as to who should be the king. The idiot who was unable to do any reasoning said that a melon should be the king as he loved melons. Thus a melon became the successor and next king of the ancient city.
