In this paper, it is first pointed out that the enumeration of two-dimensional lattice-ordered real algebras provided by Birkhoff and Pierce is complete. Then we classify lattice-ordered algebra
over a totally ordered field
. Finally in section 4, we provide more information on the partially ordered rings in which every square is positive, especially a characterization of partially ordered fields in which every square is positive is given.
