Security. WANs connect buildings together, LANs are inside of buildings. They are similar but not the same. If you don't have more than one location, you don't need a WAN.
WAN ( Wide Area Network )
To connect ( n ) LANs such that each LAN can directly communicate with any other LAN, you need ( \frac{n(n-1)}{2} ) point-to-point WANs. This is because each LAN requires a dedicated connection to every other LAN, and since communication is bidirectional, each pair of LANs is connected by one WAN link. Thus, the formula accounts for all unique pairs of LANs.
