Not all ancient civilizations were obsessed with power. What can safely be said is that ancient nations' first obligation was to protect itself from more aggressive nations. The nation of Judea was only interested, as example, in protecting its own territories. It had no aspirations to expand as did its neighbors of Egypt and Persia.
Now in the ancient world, power equated to wealth. The Roman City-State was not founded with the idea of world domination. It saw however that wars it fought to protect itself opened the door to more power & wealth.
In the modern world, most countries are not obsessed with power either. Their main objective in most cases is to proper and increase the standard of living for their citizens.
