What is wrong ?

Don't see where is the problem with the last line of code.

script.js 
var newYork = {
  population: 100, 
  latitude: '40.7127 N',
  longitude: '74.0059 W'
};

newYork.population = 8.406e6;
newYork.country = USA;
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>JavaScript Objects</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

newYork.country = USA;

Is USA a variable or are you trying to assign the string "USA"?
