That can't be possible though. Imagine the USA. The 1st gen area (Kokoto, Minegarde, etc) is around where Oregon would be, and the 2nd gen stuff (Dondruma, Jumbo, Pokke, etc) Is like California. The 3rd gen stuff (Loc Lac, Moga, Yukumo, Tanjia) would be, say Rhode Islande or Massachusetts. That's a huge distance.

So for this to work, I'd say that the Tower would have to be around Kansas to be equal distance between both the Minegardian region and what I'm going to call the Moga region. Capcom has, for whatever reason, left an entire, huge chunk in the middle of the MH world unexplored, which is where I suspect this Tower to be. Think about it, from the top of the tower (And at Tower 3) you can see a vast, expansive lowland stretching out in all directions. This doesn't resemble any areas in either region, so I assume that much of the central region of the MH world is composed of flat plains and craggy lowlands, making for a relatively easy (albeit very long) trip for hunters. And since only Silver/Gold Raths are found here, I assume that it's a sort of instinctive place for them to go when death is near (assuming we're going with the age theory) similar to how Salmon make a long trip to their spawning grounds to die. Same could go for Narga rare and we simply haven't seen one until now. As for why the tower was built in the first place, well that's still up for debate.
