Contrary to the notion of a set or a tuple, a multiset is an unordered collection of elements which do not need to be different. As multisets are already widely used in combinatorics and computer science, the aim of this paper is to get on track to algebraic multiset theory. We consider generalizations of known results that hold for equivalence and order relations on sets and get several properties that are specific to multisets. Furthermore, we exemplify the novelty that brings this concept by showing that multisets are suitable to represent partial orders. Finally, after introducing the notion of an algebra on multisets, we prove that two algebras on multisets, whose root algebras are isomorphic, are in general not isomorphic.
