The Melonian Transitional State, or Project Melonia 2.0 as it was called at the time, was the successor to the Republic of Melonia. During the transition, several measures were proposed to the Melonian defectors, which formed the basis of governance and server administration that led to the Chiefdom of Osolia.
Measures
Measures A: Server plugins and datapacks
13 votes were held on which server plugins would be retained from the previous Melonian world.
The only plugins which failed to reach a majority, and were thusly removed, were; Brewery, which added alcoholic beverages to Minecraft; PiggyV2, which gave players an in-game bank account; and TreeFeller, which would chop down an entire tree trunk automatically with the removal of its base.
Brewery was seen as a relic of Cieurnish traditions and therefore was defeated 7 to 1.
An additional 4 votes were held on adding several datapacks. The proposals to add datapacks for extending armor stand functionality, making shulkers drop 2 shulker shells when killed, and making bats drop phantom membranes when killed all passed. The only datapack proposal not to be added was Measure A22, "Add a datapack for mobs/players to drop heads upon dying".
Measures A: Server configuration
Several further votes were held on configuring the commands which would be enabled on the new server, such as /home or /tpa. Configurations remained the same as in Melonia, except for the addition of a /spawn command, which passed 7 to 2.
Measure B and C: Name of the new state
A point of contention over the first days of the Transitional State was the name for the new state. The first to be put to a vote, Novinia, proposed by tz_scion, was defeated due to a lack of support.
Lots of proposals for names continued to be discussed, until Osolia was suggested by Hydrogen through a shortening Ortusolia, proposed by TriforceComet. The name passed 7 to 2.
Measure D: Flag of the state
Several flag proposals were put forth, but the overarching theme of most designs included a sun and the color blue. Designs were bounced back and forth, changing colors or motifs, until 3 were selected to be put to a vote.
