That is the way networks are set up. The whole idea of using a router is to separate and connect different networks or subnets.

Note that a "host" is any point that has an IP address; so the router interface (or port) is also a host.

Is it legal to use 2 routers?

Using 2 routers is not illegal, but it is kind of pointless. Each Router can support up to 255 connected devices, however the more devices you have on an internet connection, the slower your connection is. Therefore unless you have multiple T1 lines (which is highly doubtful unless you have a large network) running multiple routers is pointless. You would be better off with 1 router and multiple network switches.
