1. Lunar maria. Large meteors would hit the Moon and crack the thin, still-forming crust causing lava to flow out.
2.The giant impact theory (I am pretty sure it’s called). A mar sized body named Theia hit earth and the debris (I think that’s the word) of the impact formed moon.
3. North pole? Tholins. It is formed by stealing the escaping gases from pluto. (I don’t think a moon should steal! )

Correct except I would give partial credit for #3, it is called the Mordor Macula.
