Page Router used to change the URL. We can catch and rename each page URL by this router. Below is the location of Page Router definition file.
/development/definition/uri_manager/page_router.xml
Each Routing role has two part 1) Actual, 2) Virtual. Actual part contain the URL that we have to masked and Virtual part is the replaced URL like:
page/view/terms convert terms-and-conditions. below is the the conversion
<role>
<actual>page/view/terms</actual>
<virtual>terms-and-conditions</virtual>
</role>
According to the above example website URL is www.example.com/terms-and-conditions which calls below Action Method
public function viewAction($pagename = null){
}
"terms" in the URL will store in $pagename variable for further use. See below full example of a Page Rotuer

<!-- Home controller -->
<role>
<actual>home/search</actual>
<virtual>search</virtual>
</role>
<!-- Home controller End -->
<!-- Page controller -->
