That the States has to be number one in ensuring the priority concerns of order and security is what Creon says about the supremacy of the state in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon gives his view on the state in the first scene with the chorus of Theban elders, the second scene with his niece Princess Antigone, and the third scene with his son Prince Haemon. He maintains that Thebes survives because of the loyalty of Thebans to their rulers. That loyalty recognizes the critical role of the State in the security of Thebes and the well being of its people.
