Definition and Usage
The @import rule allows you to import a style sheet into another style sheet.
The @import rule must be at the top of the document (but after any
@charset
declaration).
The @import rule also supports media queries, so you can allow the import to
be media-dependent.
Browser Support
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the property.
