What caused the terrain on mercury?

Mercurys terrain is Hilly and Lineated Terrain. Sometimes, it is called the Chaotic Terrain, because it looks pretty chaotic. The Hilly and Lineated Terrain covers perhaps 360,000 square kilometers of Mercury's surface and consists of massifs filled with hills ranging, in some cases, nearly two kilometers high and several kilometers across. The hills have an appearance of almost rectangular blocks. Many ancient craters in the area are ruined by whatever event created the chaotic nature of this part of Mercury's surface.Mercury has a crater like terrain. It has been hit by so many craters that it has lost 0.1% of its diameter.
