Empire Earth 2.
Hearts of Iron 3 or Europa Universalis 3 is right up your alley.
they all look interesting.. I'm watching some reviews and seeing what one looks best. Europa Universalis 3 is looking like what I'm after.
Super Power 2?
Anno.
Any of the Europa Universalis games, Victoria, or any of the Hearts of Iron games; any of the Total War games, although be aware that while they have nation building features, the focus is on the battles; and any of the Civilization or Call to Power games. Those aren't the only ones out there, but they are among the more successful ones, so they're among many people's favorites.

All of the Paradox games offer a good balance of military, economy, politics and all the other stuff you need to take care of to run a nation state.

Mount and Blade if you're more of the "have the peasants build up some new building while I go slaughter heathens" type guy.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI is like that if you don't mind being restricted to ancient china
