Re-installing an older version of macos?

Im currently running ventura, and im not the biggest fan of it, and i want to re install an older version of macos. I have monterey backed up in my time machine, but for some reason i cant reinstall monterey. even after factory reset, it just reinstalled Ventura. Confused as my mac mini is from 2018, and didnt ship with ventura, but theres no option to install an older version.
