Ferdnanda is a very religious and prude person. She was raised from a rich family of aristocrats and was bound for great things in her life. She is looked down upon by the Buendia family because she is not from Maconda. Aureliano Segundo married her, but he is unfaithful to her with Petra. He seeks pleasure from her because his wife is so prude and because his animals reproduce everytime they have sex. Fernanda becomes stern and tried to impose things on the Buendia family that they are not accustomed to, such as religion and its view on sex. Yet, they end up having two children together.
The arrival of modern technology had to do with the invention of the railroad. New technology was being brought in. This kind of confused the inhabitants of Macondo in a sense. The people who live there have seen magic before, but not this modern new town of theirs. Their town is very cosmopolitan now, but also confusing and chaotic. This town was supposed to be controlled and orderly, but all the uproar attracts new inhabitants. Remedios is the only one unfazed by the rapid growth of the town. Remedios is too simple and innocent for this new world she is living in.
