class World extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    console.dir(props);      
    this.state = {
      fromIdeas: props.match.params.WORLD || 'unknown'
    }
  }
  render() {
    const { match, location} = this.props;
    return (
      <React.Fragment>

            <Link 
              to={{
                pathname: `/hello/${this.state.nextPage}`, 
                query:{thing: 'asdf', another1: 'stuff'}

          <li>
            <button 
              onClick={() => this.setState({
              nextPage: 'world2',
              showWorld2: true})}>
              switch  2
            </button>
          </li>
          {this.state.showWorld2 
           && 
           <li>
              <Link 
                to={{
                  pathname: `/hello/${this.state.nextPage}`, 
                  query:{thing: 'fdsa'}}} >
                Home 2
              </Link>

Example 2: react router how to send data

props.history.push('/other-page', { id: 7, color: 'green' }))

Then, you can access the state data in '/other-page' via:

props.location.state

Example 3: passing data in route react

<Route path="/" render={() => <Search name={this.props.name} />} />

Example 4: passing data in route react

<Route path="/" component={() => <Search name={this.props.name} />} />
