How to include a html file inside another html file with Vanilla Javascript?

Question

I want to create a single page web application with pure Vanilla Js, not React Js or another. What I want is when I click on a menu link, I want it to include another html file and show up the result without reloading. I did it with include(), get(), load() in jQuery. But I want to do it with pure vanilla Js, if possible, even though with some tricks.

Here is the one of the things I did with jQuery:

$('.link-about').click(function(){
 $('.my-div').load('about-page.html');
});

As shown above, how it should work is that I click a link and another html file loads.

You can try this. I am considering elements has id

<script>
    document.getElementById('link-about').onclick = function() {
        document.getElementById('my-div').innerHTML = '<object data="about.html" >'
    }
</script>
