Ok, the population is way too low. If you completely eliminate the metro population(city and suburbs) of both Athens and Thessaloniki you have 6.5 million in Greece alone. Nukes aren't going to take out the entire metro area, so I've been using that as a guide for pop. loss due to sickness, starvation etc, so 6.5 million is a good number for greece. Though they don't control it all so you could probably put it at 5.5. Plus you include remaining turks in Thrace and the Dodecanese republic, plus the population of Egypt and Libya, plus refugees. I think 7-8 million is more realistic.
