You can find it yourself. Take a world atlas, go to South America and locate the country, Argentina. Note the scale on the map (for example, 10000 to 1). Take a thin string and anchor one end on the map at any boundary point with a pushpin. Slowly trace the boundaries of Argentina by letting the string follow the contour until you return to your pushpin, the starting point. Mark the location on the string. Stretch the string straight, but not too taut. Measure the length of the string with a ruler. Then multiply that value with the number 10000 (from the scale). The product is the perimeter of Argentina.
