The continent of Trianglandia is an equilateral triangle of side length $9$, divided into $81$ triangular countries of side length $1$. Each country has the resources to choose at most $1$ of its $3$ sides and build a “wall” covering that entire side. However, since all the countries are at war, no two countries are willing to have their walls touch, even at a corner. What is the maximum number of walls that can be built in Trianglandia?
