Reset to default 0Bootstrap 5
Your issue is that navbar-inverse is not a valid class in Bootstrap 5. It was available in Bootstrap 3 but has been removed in later versions. Instead, you should use navbar-expand-lg navbar-dark bg-dark to achieve a black background with white text.
Besides that, you have to make some other small changes to achieve the desired result:

<div>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-dark bg-dark">
<div class="container-fluid">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">WebSiteName</a>
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#navbarNav" aria-controls="navbarNav" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNav">
<ul class="navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Page 1</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Page 2</a>

<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Page 3</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</nav>

<h1>Hello, world!</h1>Bootstrap 3
If you want to stick with your original code, you have to use Bootstrap 3 instead:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
