Say from 1400 onwards? I can't seem to find a population estimate for the Morea except one from 1600 or so when the turks rules it (200 000).
Constantinople had around 50 000 at the time the Turks captured it. Unless there was some sort of population explosion or retraction between 1453-1600 or so I would guesstimate that the Byzantines likely had a population of no more than 500 000 (and probably less) being generous which would reflect the population loss of the Turks enslaving the Greeks and shipping people from the Morea back to Constantinople. The intervening 150 odd years presumably would have seen the popilation recover somewhat but Mistra and the Morea saw people emigrating from Constantinople in the final years of the Byzantines so I have no idea what the total population was.
