Defined in header <map>
template<     class Key,     class T,     class Compare = std::less<Key>,     class Allocator = std::allocator<std::pair<const Key, T> > > class multimap;	(1)
namespace pmr {     template <class Key, class T, class Compare = std::less<Key>>     using multimap = std::multimap<Key, T, Compare,                                   std::polymorphic_allocator<std::pair<const Key,T>>>; }	(2)	(since C++17)

Multimap is an associative container that contains a sorted list of key-value pairs. Sorting is done according to the comparison function Compare, applied to the keys. Search, insertion, and removal operations have logarithmic complexity.

The order of the key-value pairs whose keys compare equivalent is the order of insertion and does not change. (since C++11)

Everywhere the standard library uses the Compare concept, equivalence is determined by using the equivalence relation as described on Compare. In imprecise terms, two objects a and b are considered equivalent if neither compares less than the other: !comp(a, b) && !comp(b, a).

std::multimap meets the requirements of Container, AllocatorAwareContainer, AssociativeContainer and ReversibleContainer.
