If you zoom in on Constantinople, you can see that it's only bordering two provinces. MOAP was allowed to only take those two since no other provinces were next to his province(s).

Now let's pretend that we would be in turn 60. MOAP would control all of Greece but he wouldn't have any land connection to, let's say Tirana (capital of Albania). MOAP has one province that is not controlled by anyone between his land and Tirana. MOAP cannot take Tirana in that turn since it doesn't border any of his provinces. It would take two turns for MOAP to gain Tirana (take the border between Tirana and his land and after that turn, take Tirana)

If you take land from across the water like the Channel, you can only take one province per turn on that island (the 3 province rule applies here, take one province on the island and you can take 2 provinces on the continent.)
