You left out the merchants and clergy from the European list.

Japan:
Emperor, Shogun, samurai, merchants, peasants -- and priests in there, too, depending on the religion (Buddhism, Shinto, ...)

This site has the feudal caste system. However, there also was a merchant class that is not mentioned.
