quotes analysis (Chronicle of a Death Foretold)

Hello,

We are doing a novel study on Chronicle of a Death Foretold, and I am trying to analyze two quotes that I found from the novella. They include...

"By the time Ibrahim Nasar arrived with the last Arabs at the end of the civil wars, seagoing ships no longer came there because of shifts in the river, and the warehouse was in disuse."

"General Petronio San Roman, hero of the civil wars of the past century, and one of the major glories of the Conservative regime for having put Colonel Aureliano Buenda to flight in the disaster of Tucurinca."

How would these quotes bear significance, possibly in relation to the La Violencia period? (Colombian Civil War)

Thank you so much!
