conjunctions
The two types of compound sentences are coordinated compound sentences, where independent clauses are joined by a coordinating conjunction, and subordinated compound sentences, where independent clauses are joined by a subordinating conjunction.
No, "than" is a preposition. The proper word would be "then", which is a subordinate conjunction.
Complex Sentences Are Concise
A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinator, coordinators are always preceded by a comma. A complex sentence has an independent clause joined by one or more dependent clauses. A complex sentence always has a subordinator such as because, since, after, although, or when or a relative pronoun such as that, who, or which.

Complex simply becase compound sentences have two independent clauses ( a clause that makes sense on its own ) joined by a connective however a complex sentence had an Independant and dependant either joined by a comma or a cconnective. DONT think just because it has a connective in it its compound because it might be complex.

Well, the usual sentence classifications are simple sentences, compound sentences, complex sentences, and compound-complex sentences. Simple sentences are the most basic kind, they consist of one independent clause. Compound sentences contain two independent clauses. Complex sentences contain an independent clause and a dependent clause. Compound-complex sentences contain at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause.
Compound sentences are joined by a coordinating conjunction (such as and, but, or, so), a semicolon, or a conjunctive adverb (such as however, therefore).
Clauses can be joined together using coordinating conjunctions (e.g. and, but, or), subordinating conjunctions (e.g. because, although, while), and relative pronouns (e.g. who, which, that). This allows you to create complex sentences by connecting independent and dependent clauses.
