1454 CE

The despots of Morea, Demetrios Palaiologos and Thomas Palaiologos, brothers of the last emperor, had failed to send him any aid, as Morea was reeling from a recent Ottoman attack.

Their own incompetence at rule leads to an Albanian-Greek revolt against them, when they invite in Ottoman troops to help them put down the revolt.

At this time, a number of leading Moreote Greeks and Albanians make private peace with Mehmed.
