The various sizes of planets and satellites are the result of random collisions of assorted objects and debris, in the early years of the solar system after it condensed out of an interstellar dust cloud. Since Ganymede is a satellite of the largest planet in the solar system, Jupiter, it is not strange that it is larger than the smallest planet in the solar system.
