What happens in Immiland?

A powerful country, Immiland, is attracting people around the world to immigrate and live in this country. However, Immiland only want the best talents from the world, so here is this competition between all outsiders. The outsiders have to defeat all other opponents, so that they can get the Visa to enter. They use strategies against each other, and they show their strength to suppress their opponents. However, the policies are always changing, and there is no guarantee that even if you have paid all these effort and meet the standard, you will still be rejected. Maybe even worse, you may be pushed back behind others who you once defeat.
