Abstract
We develop the basic theory of projective modules and splitting over semirings, within the more general setting of systems. Systems provide a common language for most tropical algebraic approaches including supertropical algebra, hyperrings (specifically hyperfields), and fuzzy rings. This enables us to prove analogues of classical theorems for tropical and hyperring theory in a unified way. In this context we prove a Dual Basis Lemma and versions of Schanuel's Lemma.
