Why concentrate power at all? How about we disperse the power, so that the power one has diminishes outside his nation city (size of which is determined approximately by how much one can move in a day). And limit power so that you cannot cumulate it to achieve anything globally drastic unless lots of time passes, or most of people have same need.

Rather than having indirect power that can be stolen, people need direct local power that has consequences with transparent effects.

Big nations, and corporations, we allow them to exist, and some of us, sometimes myself, think they are good for us. It just makes me sad how passive and accepting we are in this regard, and how current culture enables small companies quickly rise to into position to serve yet another brand of Soma.
