To God and to the Torah that He gave them.

The covenant between God and the Israelite nation (see Exodus ch.19 and ch.24) was made in the time of Moses, with Moses serving as the messenger. It is a covenant of obedience, to listen to God's voice (Exodus 19:5), which includes the entire Torah (24:12). God, for His part, promised to treasure the Israelites (Exodus 19:5, Deuteronomy 26:16-19).

Why does the oath require citizens to give up allegiance to foreign powers?

Any person swearing allegiance to a country is required to give up allegiance to any other country ! If you become a citizen of a country - you're expected to be faithful exclusively to that country - forsaking all others. For example.... say you were born in Spain - and then became a British citizen... If Spain and the UK were to become enemies - you would be expected to side with the British interests, not Spain - even if that meant joining British armed forces in a war against Spain !
