-Where initial is the `initial` router state and `handlers` is a string -> function map of action types to action reducers. Each handler is passed `state` and `action` as parameters, which correspond to the assigned reducer state and the current action (without the `type` property) and should return the new version of state after resolving the action. Simple as that.
