We already know what happened to the dwemer. They wanted to use the Heart of Lorkhan to become gods themselves. The Chimer, who were always on rough terms with the dwemer, thought this was an insult to their gods and started a war. During the massive battle of Red Mountain the dwemer tried to use the Heart and all (but one) instantly vanished.

I don't believe Sheogorath is the most powerful. There could be many reasons as to why he defeated Jyggalag. Jyggalag was cursed to a much weaker form and his power could have been drained from then. His realm was also madness, so he did not have any control over it. Otherwise, Jyggalag would have simply snapped his fingers and the Shivering Isles would be no more. But he is probably very weak now. And not to mention that Sheogorath burned the library and cursed Dyus which, if you read madman's "Jyggalag Theory" blog, could have possibly been the source of why he was so powerful. Mehrunes Dagon seems pretty weak now too, as he used up a lot of his power to power up the Oblivion portals during the Oblivion Crisis which should have weakened him.
