The timariot system was largely marginalised though. They also had feudal vassals in the Balkans but again they were on the fringes. The bulk of the power and authority came from the Sultan and his own forces.

China didn't really practice feudalism. It was a bureaucratic society, you got an education then got some role which may end up leading to being a governor of some city or province. It's why there were not castles in China, pretty much every city, town and even village had a wall but there were no castles.
