What is ‘1 in Collection type Name

The backtick indicates:

The name of a generic type ends with a backtick (`) followed by digits
representing the number of generic type arguments. The purpose of this
name mangling is to allow compilers to support generic types with the
same name but with different numbers of type parameters, occurring in
the same scope.
