Why are other civilizations ignored in the Bible?

[Esquilax]

But what arguments, what supporting evidence have you given to show that premise one is even true? You have an enormously huge burden to bear in showing that to be more plausibly true than its denial. What argument do you have that can demonstrate that in order for the Bible to be the Word of God it MUST focus on the entire planet? It seems to me in order for you to answer this you would have to reason that it is inconsistent with the nature of God to not mention other nations or other people groups. But how is this inconsistent with God's nature? Not only that but this assumes that He ignores everyone else except the Israelites, and we know this simply is not true if one has actually read the entire bible.

I think you're putting the cart before the horse there.

Actually, I think your weird tunnel vision on the argument this specific thread is broaching against the bible is preventing you from seeing the myriad other reasons one should not believe the bible is the word of god- of which this specific one is a bolster, not definitive. But cart/horse tomfoolery is also present; arguing about the specific traits of a god that you haven't even demonstrated to exist is a tad premature.

In answer to your actual question, does the fact that god chose to reveal himself in such detail to only one group of people seem consistent with the character of a god who supposedly loves and wants a personal relationship with all mankind? Especially when we factor in the fact that it is entirely within this god's power to cultivate his message in a much more effective way, that he had to know existed?

There's your evidence: the method by which your god is claimed to have gone about his stated objective is ineffective and borderline nonsensical. It's much more reasonable to conclude that these claims were written by humans, without divine intervention, and that all these inconsistencies are down to their own limited knowledge, and not handwavey bullshit about mysterious ways.
