Can someone with more experience with law enforcement than me tell what the different reasons the FBI have for getting involved in a case?

I know one is if the crime occurs on federal land - national parks, DC, etc., but any other reasons? (And also I'm not even entirely sure about that one - it can't be all crimes on federal land, right

I know that if someone is kidnapped and is taken across state lines then the FBI gets involved.

I also think that if the suspect in a murder case crosses state lines, than the FBI can get involved. But, I only know this from TV FBI shows. The previous one I know.

I actually already got a much more extensive answer, but thanks! :)
