title: Chinese noble titles in the imperial period
text: During imperial China, a wide variety of noble titles were granted. Some of these were hereditary; an overlapping subset were honorary. At the beginning of imperial China, the administration of territory was growing out of the older fengjian system, and the central government asserting more control over the old aristocracy. The emperor, as sovereign, held the power to grant noble titles and to enfeoff vassals.
