Your name is:

ALEXANDER

My prefix is better served cold, and with friends

Your prefix is ALE, a drink often served cold in a pub or bar on a social occasion.

My infix is bigger than PETA's smaller brother

Your infix is EXA, the metric prefix for one quintillion (10^18), larger than one quadrillion (represented by 'peta', the lower-case little brother of the upper-case PETA) by a factor of one thousand.

My suffix is a fire lizard, devoid of Arabian peace

Your suffix is ANDER, derived from SALAMANDER (a fire lizard) without SALAM ('peace' in Arabic).

Given the title and its emphasis on power, it is quite possible that you are:

the ancient ruler and leader, Alexander the Great.
