...where does the moral come from that says one set of morals can rule over another set of morals?
Quite simply, such a moral does not exist.
Think about it: If Sven beats the crap out of Peter, what "moral" dictates that Sven gets his way afterwards?
If Sven beats Peter in an election, what "moral" dictates that Sven gets to take office?
These "morals" only exist insomuch as Peter changes his behavior in accordance with them.
Granted, not all "morals" are "might makes right" scenarios, but all of them are simply changes in the way one behaves toward another based on some change in their perception on the other.
There is no reason to think this sort of thing "comes from" anywhere in particular.
