We introduce and study a special class of ideals over the semiring of tropical polynomials, which we call
tropical ideals, with the goal of developing a useful and solid algebraic foundation for tropical geometry. We explore
their rich combinatorial structure, and prove that they satisfy numerous properties analogous to classical ideals.
