Llywelyn Dafydd Pugh formed the Fourth Pugh government (officially the Ministry of Llywelyn D. Pugh IV), a Loyalist minority government, following the 1988 general election after being invited by both President Carlyle Descoteaux and Emperor of the Dell Planet Albert IV to form a new administration. Before the election, Pugh had led three other governments, with the previous being the Third Pugh government, a coalition government that consisted of members of the Loyalists and the Moderates, with Moderate leader Andreas Reece as Deputy Prime Minister.
The 1988 general election resulted in a victory for the Loyalists but also resulted in a Hung Parliament.
Due to the government crisis around this time, which resulted in the resignation of many cabinet members, Pugh announced he would resign as prime minister, just 3 weeks after the last general election. He was succeeded by Secretary for International Relations David Jones (who was dismissed from the position a month before the election) as Prime Minister afterwards.
